| Biometric Information Management for Security |
Abstract
The OASIS XML Common Biometric Format (XCBF) uses the new X.693 ASN.1
XML Encoding Rules (XER) to define a common set of messages based on the
ASN.1 schema in X9.84 "Biometrics Information Management and
Security".
A canonical variant of XER (CXER) is used to provide cryptographic
enhancements of the two patron formats described in NIST IR 6529,
"Common Biometric Exchange File Format (CBEFF)". The processing
and security requirements for digitally signed or encrypted biometric
objects are specified in X9.96 "XML Cryptographic Message Syntax (XCMS)".
This presentation provides basic information on these standards and their application.
