Biometric authentication — facial recognition, fingerprint scanning, voice recognition — adds convenience but introduces unique attack vectors: presentation attacks (spoofing with photos, silicone fingerprints, recorded voice), liveness detection bypass, biometric data storage security, and fallback authentication flow exploitation. Testing evaluates: can biometrics be spoofed? If biometric fails, does the fallback flow maintain security? Is biometric data encrypted and protected? And can the enrollment process be manipulated?
