Abstract

A wireless device and a method for secure data transmission is described. Information representing biometric data of a user is obtained. The information is processed to produce a code and the code is sent over a wireless technology. A response is requested of a device that has a matching code, where the matching can be within a predetermined tolerance. A response is received that includes at least one of a public key which includes the code as a part of the key and the identity of the device having the matching code. The data to be transmitted is encrypted with the public key and sent to the device with the matching code.
