January 15, 2021 Biometric Security

A new series of International Standards has just been published. ISO/IEC 19989, Information security – Criteria and methodology for security evaluation of biometric systems, has just been published to help ensure they are protected from such attacks. This series provides a bridge between ISO/IEC 19792, which defines the evaluation principles for biometric products and systems, and the ISO/IEC 15408 series and ISO/IEC 18045, which define the criteria and methodology requirements for security evaluation.
