Abstract:

This document provides a comprehensive technical reference that lists published biometric standards and describes their applicability to the biometric functions described in the Capstone Concept of Operations CONOPS for Department of Defense DoD Biometrics in Support of Identity Superiority. It was prepared by the DoD Biometrics Standards Working Group BSWG to assist in the development of future system-specific policy and technical documents, such as standard operating procedures, architecture technical views, and application profiles. This document provides support for a number of biometric modalities, including fingerprints, face images, iris images, signaturesign data, hand geometry, and palm prints. It also describes the status of biometric standards in the DoD Information Technology Standards Registry. The appendices of this document contain a brief overview of the criteria for DoD adoption of standards and information on the collection of non-standardized biometric data, including DNA and voice recording samples. The DoD BSWG will update this document on a regular basis as new biometric standards emerge and to maintain consistency with the CONOPS.
