Information technology — On-card biometric comparison — Part 2: Work-sharing mechanism

This document provides requirements for a biometric comparison methodology suitable for the on-card environment. In particular, it establishes the work-sharing on-card biometric comparison techniques that require an intensity exceeding the capabilities of integrated circuit cards (ICCs). This document does not establish — architectures of biometric comparison using an ICC, — on-card biometric comparison, both in sensor-off-card systems and as part of biometric system-on-card, — security policies for on-card biometric comparison, — requirements for off-card biometric comparison, — requirements for biometric system-on-card (defined in the ISO/IEC 17839 series), or — modality-specific requirements for storage and comparison.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical
Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are
members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity.
ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations,
governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/
IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs).
ISO and IEC draw attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the
use of (a) patent(s). ISO and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any
claimed patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO and IEC had not
received notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers
are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent
database available at www.iso.org/patents and https://patents.iec.ch. ISO and IEC shall not be held
responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology,
Subcommittee SC 17, Cards and security devices for personal identification.
This first edition cancels and replaces ISO/IEC 24787:2018, which has been technically revised. ISO/IEC 24787
has been split into two parts, ISO/IEC 24787-1 and ISO/IEC 24787-2.
The main changes are as follows:
— Previous Clause 9 “Work-sharing on-card biometric comparison procedure” and other subclauses related
to work-sharing have been moved into this document.
A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC 24787 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.
