A fingerprint characterizing system and method include receiving a fingerprint image at a fingerprint module; extracting a plurality of minutiae points from the fingerprint image, via a fingerprint image sensor; generating a minutiae file of biometric data according to a corresponding location of the plurality of minutiae points on the fingerprint image; generating a pair table from the minutiae file; dividing the pair table into a plurality of subsets; encrypting, via processing circuitry each of the plurality of subsets; comparing, via the processing circuitry each of the encrypted plurality of subsets against one or more existing encrypted subsets stored across a plurality of data clouds; and generating, via the processing circuitry a match table for each of the encrypted plurality of subsets and a corresponding compatible existing encrypted subset stored in the plurality of data clouds.
