Anotation

CEN/TS 18212 series specifies a generic framework for the establishment of requirements and their evalu-ation methodology for biometric products. The requirements depend on the biometric mode considered, and are adapted to each scenario, through the definition of a variety of application profiles (APs). This series of standards are expected to provide the evaluation methodology, the individual tests, and the APs (with their particular requirements).
This document specifies:
- tests for evaluating the interoperability of all biometric input data (received or read);
- test for evaluating the interoperability of all biometric output data (stored or transmitted);
- test for evaluating the interoperability of all exchange of information between the TOE and external compo-nents or devices.
NOTE 1 - Additional parts are provided covering the specifics of each biometric mode. For each of these modalities, application-independent tests are defined, as well as a set of APs, that detail the applicable tests, the evaluation parameters, and the passing criteria. The Technical Specifications within this series can be taken by any certification body and/or sector, to define and evaluate the requirements for their biometric products within their selected applications.
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.
NOTE 4 - This part defines all potential tests that could be applicable when evaluating the interoperability of a bi-ometric product. It will be the relevant AP, the one that will specify which of these tests are applicable
