ISO/IEC 17922:2017

Telebiometric authentication framework using biometric hardware security module

SCOPE

In this Recommendation, the expression "Administration" is used for conciseness to indicate both a telecommunication administration and a recognized operating agency.
Compliance with this Recommendation is voluntary. However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure, e.g., interoperability or applicability) and compliance with the Recommendation is achieved when all of these mandatory provisions are met. The words "shall" or some other obligatory language such as "must" and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is required of any party.

    This standard was created jointly between ISO/IEC JTC1/SC27 and ITU-T. The public scope of this standard reads as: "To prove ownership of an ITU-T X.509 certificate registered individually with the registration authority (RA), a biometric hardware security module has been considered to provide a high-level biometric authentication. ISO/IEC 17922:2017 provides a framework for telebiometric authentication using BHSM. Within the scope of ISO/IEC 17922:2017, the following issues are addressed: - telebiometric authentication mechanisms using BHSM in telecommunication network environments; and - abstract syntax notation one (ASN.1) format and protocols for implementing the mechanisms in the ITU‑T X.509 framework." This standard describes a telebiometric authentication scheme using a biometric hardware security module (BHSM). It also provides the requirements for deploying a BHSM scheme to provide secure telebiometric authentication within a PKI. From the implementation point of view, the standard also provides ASN.1 definitions that allow the biometric authentication to be incorporated into an ITU-T X.509 framework. The content of the standard starts with the definition of the additional features present in a BHSM, compared to a regular HSM. Then, it explains the general scenario for using a BHSM and in particular, its use in telebiometric authentication. Once the BHSM is explained, the standard focusses on detailing both processes involved during a telebiometric authentication using a BHSM: enrolment and authentication. Finally, the link to X.509 certificates is explained.
