BS ISO/IEC 30108-1:2015

This standard BS ISO/IEC 30108-1:2015 Information technology. Biometric Identity Assurance Services is classified in these ICS categories:

• 35.240.15 Identification cards and related devices

This part of ISO/IEC 30108 defines biometric services used for identity assurance that are invoked over a services-based framework. It provides a generic set of biometric and identity-related functions and associated data definitions to allow remote access to biometric services.

The binding of these services to specific frameworks is not included in this part of ISO/IEC 30108 , but will be the subject of subsequent parts.

Although focused on biometrics, this part of ISO/IEC 30108 will necessarily include support for other related identity assurance mechanisms such as biographic and document capabilities. BIAS is intended to be compatible with and used in conjunction with other biometric standards as described in Clause 3.

Specification of biometric functionality is limited to remote (backend) services. Services between a client-side application and biometric capture devices are not within the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 30108 .

Integration of biometric services as part of an authentication service or protocol is not within the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 30108 .
