Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biometrics refers to the use of biological features for identification, such as fingerprints or retinal scans. This is commonly used in highly secure networks associated with Homeland Security or national defense. Bio-Engineering refers to the application of engineering principles and techniques to biological systems, and is not relevant to this context. Physical security refers to measures taken to secure physical assets, but does not specifically refer to biometric authentication methods. Human factors refer to the study of the relationship between humans and systems, and while it is related, it does not specifically refer to biometric authentication methods.
