"SOFA-B: Enabling organizations to measure the strength of biometric technologies"
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) wants to create a framework for biometric authenticators with the development of the Strength of Function for Authenticators – Biometrics, or SOFA-B. This framework will help in measuring and comparing the strength of different biometric authenticators as well as other authenticator types such as passwords, tokens, and more. This article further discusses the goal behind SOFA-B, security components of this framework, and envisioned purposes for this framework in the future.
