1. A system, comprising:
a memory to store instructions; and
a processor coupled to the memory, wherein responsive to executing instructions, the processor performs operations comprising:
determining an expiration associated with a nullifying biometric included in an image;
determining whether to deny an authentication according to and after the expiration associated with the nullifying biometric, resulting in a first determination;
determining whether to deny the authentication according to a life of the nullifying biometric, wherein the life of the nullifying biometric is determined based on a natural physiological process associated with the nullifying biometric, resulting in a second determination; and
denying the authentication according to one of the first determination or the second determination.
