ABSTRACT:
A method of encrypting an object includes generating a cryptographic key, using the cryptographic key to initialize a cryptographic algorithm, and applying the algorithm to the object. Accordingly, an encrypted object is formed. The key is generated by combining key splits derived from different sources. One of the key splits is a biometric value derived from and corresponding to a particular person.
