Summary of Applied Biometrics TG Activities: October 2015 to August 2016

Abstract

This report has been generated by the ERNCIP Thematic Group: applied biometrics for security of critical infrastructures.
Biometrics allows for the automated identification of individuals based on their biological and behavioural characteristics and provides the promise of the unique identification or classification of individuals interacting with critical infrastructures. The Thematic Group was established to provide a forum for experts to drive the direction of standards development and generate advice to aid critical infrastructure stakeholders to understand and use biometrics successfully.
This report outlines the work of the Thematic Group between October 2015 and August 2016.
