Abstract
society, time is collapsing, and distance is no longer an obstacle. Crossing the ocean only takes a mouse click, people are connected 24/7. “Instantaneous’’ has a new meaning. Internet has actually changed everything; as a result, life generally has been redefined and so means of securing life.
With e-life came e-crimes, subsequently, e-security. Biometric Authentication Systems (BAS) is one of the latest e- security measures but poses serious threat to some religious and traditional beliefs. This study investigates the degree of understanding of practitioners about BAS, the beliefs that
discourages its use and the implications of refusal to learn or use new technology on the human capital development.
