Anotation

This Technical Specification (TS) series provide a generic framework for the establishment of requirements and their evaluation methodology for biometric products. The requirements depend on the biometric mode conside-red, and are adapted to each scenario, through the definition of a variety of application profiles (APs). In addition, this TS series provides the definition of the individual tests that can be applied to a biometric product. This document specifies the context for the evaluation of biometric products within the context of the European Union, as well as the general requirements for such evaluation. This will be defined in a biometric mode-independent point of view, as well as not being biased by the particular application which is the target of the biometric product to be assessed.
This first part defines the following items:
- biometric evaluation process;
- biometric evaluation phases;
- how to define each particular biometric test;
- how to define the profiling for a particular application.
NOTE 1 - Future parts of the CEN/TS series are planned to address the specifics of each biometric mode. For each of these modalities, this document specifies application-independent tests, as well as a set of APs, that detail the applicable tests, the evaluation parameters, and the passing criteria.
NOTE 2 - Regarding biometrics for public sector applications, see also BSI TR 03121 which can apply.
NOTE 3 - For an overview of sectors addressed in the Cybersecurity Act, see Regulation (EU) 2019/881
