scope:

This document provides guidance for performance testing of biometrics when this technology is used on mobile devices with local biometric authentication to improve authentication assurance. This document aims to: — Provide guidance for affordable and cost-efficient testing and reporting methods for performance assessment at a full system level of biometric systems embedded in mobile devices with offline evaluation of false accept rate (FAR) claims. — Define modality-specific considerations of these methods. This document is applicable to: — verification use cases related to secure transactions. This document is not applicable to: — privacy aspects; — secure authentication from mobile device to server; — testing and reporting for presentation attack detection (PAD) mechanisms in mobile devices; — performance testing of biometric sub-systems such as acquisition sub-system or comparison sub-system; — continuous authentication.
