Scope:

This document specifies security-related interindustry commands that are intended to be used for personal verification through biometric methods in integrated circuit cards. It also defines the data structure and data access methods for use of the card as a carrier of the biometric reference and/or as the device to perform the verification of the cardholder's biometric probe (on-card biometric comparison). Identification of persons using biometric methods is outside the scope of this document.

Project need:

To align Canadian requirements with those of international standards in the ICT subject area (adoption of new standard). This proposed New Edition is being developed at the request of P123 Technical Committee on Information Technology. It will provide the industry with the latest requirements in the field of ICT, including cybersecurity and software.
