Abstract

A method and system of selectively initiating biometric security based on thresholds is described. The method includes retrieving an access security level associated with an access domain and an access permission level associated with an electronic portable transaction device, comparing the access security level and access permission level, and, if the access security level exceeds the access permission level, initiating a biometric authentication process.
