Annotation of standard text ČSN P CEN/TS 18212-3 (369876):

CEN/TS 18212 series specifies a generic framework for the establishment of requirements and their evalu-ation methodology for biometric products. The requirements depend on the biometric mode considered and are adapted to each scenario, through the definition of a variety of application profiles.
The CEN/TS 18212 series specifies the evaluation methodology, the individual tests and the application profiles (with their particular requirements).
This document specifies:
- The different kind of evaluations to be performed.
- The terms used during the description of the tests to be applied.
- The parameters used, whose values are defined by each application profile, for each of the individual tests.
- Test data used, and considerations dealing with personal data protection.
- How to perform technology evaluations.
- Execution flow for functionality scenario evaluations.
- Execution flow for attack resistance evaluations.
NOTE 1 - Future parts of the CEN/TS series are planned to address the specifics of each biometric mode.
For each of these modalities, this document specifies application-independent tests, as well as a set of application profiles, that detail the applicable tests, the evaluation parameters and the passing criteria.
The CEN/TS 18212 series can be taken by any certification body and/or sector, to define and evaluate the requirements for their biometric products within their selected applications.
NOTE 2 - National regulations and requirements can apply.
NOTE 3 - Regarding biometrics for public sector applications, see also BSI TR-03121 which can apply.
NOTE 4 - For an overview of sectors addressed in the Cybersecurity Act, see Regulation (EU) 2019/881
