Abstract: 
AI-driven biometrics is revolutionizing the security landscape in the financial technology (FinTech) sector, enhancing safety measures and fostering trust among users. This review explores the role of AI-driven biometrics in securing FinTech operations, highlighting its benefits and implications. AI-driven biometrics refers to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms to analyze biological data for authentication purposes. This technology has gained significant traction in the FinTech sector due to its ability to provide a higher level of security than traditional authentication methods. By analyzing unique biological traits such as fingerprints, facial features, and voice patterns, AI-driven biometrics can accurately verify the identity of users, making it difficult for unauthorized individuals to gain access to sensitive financial information. One of the key benefits of AI-driven biometrics in FinTech is its ability to enhance security measures. Traditional authentication methods such as passwords and PINs are increasingly vulnerable to hacking and fraud. AI-driven biometrics, on the other hand, offers a higher level of security by using biological traits that are unique to each individual. This makes it significantly more difficult for fraudsters to gain access to sensitive financial information. In addition to enhancing security, AI-driven biometrics also improves the user experience. By replacing traditional authentication methods with biometric authentication, users can access their accounts more quickly and conveniently, without the need to remember complex passwords or PINs. This not only improves the overall user experience but also reduces the risk of user error and account lockouts. Overall, AI-driven biometrics is pioneering safety and trust in the FinTech sector by providing a higher level of security and enhancing the user experience. As this technology continues to evolve, it is likely to play an increasingly important role in securing financial transactions and fostering trust among users.
