ABSTRACT
As society progresses, the need for enhanced security measures has become increasingly important. The idea of this project is aimed at curbing the challenges of security regarding unauthorized persons gaining access into restricted premises. The old fashioned or traditional locking systems which include keys, passwords and RFID cards have proven to be less effective. Biometric systems incorporating fingerprints have hence been developed to improve security level. The evolutional trend in fingerprint security systems have shown that most projects have been restricted to a single user in addition to providing a single layer ofauthen tication which have proven to be less secure as spoofing attack on fingerprint authentication systems are becoming a possibility this day. In this project, a two-step authentication was implemented. The system employs major components such as the Microprocessors, fingerprint sensor, RFID sensor, keypad, and electric lock. The fingerprint sensor captures and stores the fingerprint data of authorized users, which is processed by the microcontroller unit for authentication purposes. Upon a successful verification, a password is required to complete the unlocking process. The effective deployment of this system showcased the benefits of the developed system in terms of its precision and dependability. The system is able to provide security at low cost making it a suitable solution for various applications such as homes, offices and high security areas.
