Although many previous researches applied fingerprint, signature, retina, and iris to fuzzy vault biometric system, it has been identified that the existing biometric used has weakness and lack in security, as False Rejection Rate, FRR achieved still has the probability to reject genuine biometric query even though in a case by Uludag, et al.
