Henry Classification System "Finger Prints" in which he described his classification system that include three main fingerprint patterns - loops, whorls and arches. At the time, the alternative to fingerprints was Bertillonage, also known as Anthropometry. Developed by Alphonse Bertillon in 1879, Bertillonage consists of a meticulous method of measuring body parts for the use of identifying criminals. In 1892, the British Indian police force adopted Anthropometry. Two years later, Sir Edward Henry, Inspector General of the Bengal Police in India became interested in the use of fingerprints for the use of criminal identification. Influenced by Galton's "Finger Prints", the men corresponded regularly
Attack patterns are things like weaknesses in protocols, authentication strategies, and system modularization. These are more logic-based attacks than actual bit-manipulation attacks. Physical attack patterns are targeted at the code itself. These are things such as SQL injection attacks, buffer overflows, race conditions, and some of the more common forms of attacks that have become popular in the news. External attack patterns include attacks such as trojan horse attacks, viruses, and worms. These are not generally solvable by software-design approaches because they operate relatively independently from the attacked program. However, vulnerabilities in a piece of software can lead to these attacks being
