Abstract
A challenge response system is disclosed for validating the identity of a camera used in a secure access application employing biometrics and attached to a workstation. The system includes a first identification means for identifying the camera; a second identification means for identifying the micro controller within the camera; and, means for authenticating the identity of the camera attached to the workstation. The identification means are one of a string of numbers, letters or an alphanumeric string of a predetermined length sufficient to provide a unique identifier. When an authorized camera is attached to the workstation the identification means are transmitted to and stored on the workstation. When the user desires access to the workstation the workstation will challenge the camera for identification means. If the response does not match the means stored in the workstation access is denied.
