Although, fingerprint data does help to crime investigation and identity recognition, the establishment involves with invasion of personal privacy. Like a double-edged sword, it can do a great help for the public society, but it can sometimes be harmful when being used with bad intentions. However, what the public concern most is the problem that fingerprint data may be disclosed or pirated and stolen . People have many concerns and don’t understand to the confidentiality protection of fingerprint data.Consequently, it is necessary to set up special laws and regulations for the use of fingerprint, also to establish comprehensive security systems, to ensure the security of fingerprint database in applications and management, so that government can be trusted by the public. In addition, crime investigations and identity recognitions both rely on forensic science. Thus, the establishments of fingerprint database and DNA database have more importance.
