Cyber attacks have been in the news a great deal lately and are not limited to particular countries or regions. Knowing exactly who is accessing sites and systems is critical. Biometrics can provide a key element of identity mangement, both in terms of biometric user authentication and identity assurance systems. In the area of cybersecurity, it is important to know both who is attempting to access a system and that biometric identity data itself is protected. Biometrics has emerged as an important tool in supporting effective identity management by strongly binding a physical person to their identity. ISO has developed several standards that support the use of biometrics in a cybersecurity environment.
