TROUBLESHOOTING INTEROPERABILITY OF BIOMETRIC SYSTEMS AND SECURITY OF BIOMETRIC DATA USING TECHNICAL STANDARDS

Abstract

This paper indicates two the most common problems in functioning of biometric systems, problem of interoperability between system’s components as well as between different biometric systems and problem of biometric data security and privacy protection, both in storage and exchange, and in biometric transaction within a biometric system as well as between different biometric systems using the Internet. Presenting the structure of BioAPI platform, CBEFF framework and ACBio (Authentication Context for Biometrics) and their relationship, highlights the benefits of the application of these standards as a solution to the aforementioned problems.
