1 Scope
BIAS defines biometric services used for identity assurance that are invoked over aservices-based framework. It is intended to provide a generic set of biometric andidentity-related functions and associated data definitions to allow remote access tobiometric services. To allow BIAS to be flexible to the amount and types ofbiographic and biometric information available to and used by a system, the terms”biographic data” and “biometric data” as used in this standard are very general.
The binding of these services to specific frameworks is not included in this project,but will be the subject of separate standards. The first such standard (for a Webservices framework) is planned to be developed by OASIS by the BIAS IntegrationTechnical Committee.
Although focused on biometrics, this standard will necessarily include support forother related identity assurance mechanisms such as biographic and tokencapabilities. BIAS is intended to be compatible with and used in conjunction withother biometric standards as described in clause 3.
Specification of single-platform biometric functionality (e.g., client-side capture, etc.)is not within the scope of this standard.
Integration of biometric services as part of an authentication service or protocol isnot within the scope of this standard; however, it is possible that some of the basicbiometric services defined herein may be used by such an implementation in thefuture.
