Abstract: A verified secure biometric collection system and method for collecting and recording data from a user associated with a secure transaction, includes a storage device, user input interface, camera, biometric scanner, camera encoder to combine/hash the user image into combined data sets that are stored in the storage device, a biometric encoder to process the biometric scan into biometric template data sets and store them in the storage device. The system includes at least one of a human witness and non-human digital witness, the non-human digital witness having access to sensor inputs and software, to verify that the user is a person, and a privacy encoder to combine and encrypt the data sets into encrypted data sets memorializing the secure transaction. The system produces a secure transaction copy including encrypted data sets, and purges of all the user data collected once the copy of the secure transaction is produced.

Abstract: Disclosed is a secure biometric collection (SBC) system for collecting and recording data from a user associated with a secure transaction. The SBC system comprises a storage device, input device, camera, fingerprint scanner, camera encoder, fingerprint encoder, and privacy encoder. The input device is configured to receive information from the user related to the secure transaction, the camera is configured to capture an image of the user and store it in the storage device, and the fingerprint scanner is configured to scan a fingerprint of the user and store it in the storage device. The camera encoder is configured to combine and hash the image of the user into combined data sets that are stored in the storage device and the fingerprint encoder is configured to process the fingerprint scan of the user into fingerprint template data sets and store the fingerprint template data sets in the storage device.
