Abstract

The objective of this review was to examine the
different biometric data encryption techniques or
algorithms used in authentication for information
security. Consequently, the PRISMA methodology
was used to select articles in different databases during
the period between 2019 and 2023. The databases
used were SCOPUS, SCIELO and GOOGLE
ACADEMICO, where when applying the proposed
inclusion and exclusion criteria, they were considered
13 articles for this research. In this way, it was possible
to notice the need to apply encryption algorithms as
a form of attack prevention and aimed at meeting
the objectives of information security, the most used
being AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and
encryption chaotic.
