DoD Policy and Strategy DoD Directive for Biometrics 8521.01E (England 2008) – Responsibilities of
the Executive Agent for Biometrics (Director BTF): E4.3. – “Provide for the standardization of biometric data formats, technical
interfaces, conformance methodologies, performance evaluations, and other related areas to permit interoperability…”
E4.3.1. – “Provide for participation on national and international standards bodies to influence and accelerate standards development.”
E4.3.2 – “Establish a DoD Biometric Standards Working Group [BSWG] to coordinate and build consensus on biometric standards development, recommend standards for DoD adoption, and provide guidance for consistent standards implementation.“
DoD Biometrics Enterprise Strategic Plan – 2008-2015 (DoD Biometrics EXCOM 2008): “Objective 3.4 – Develop and facilitate adoption of biometric standards to enable
interoperability”
DoD Requirements Initial Capabilities Document (ICD) Biometrics in Support of Identity
Management (JROC 2008) Documents 21 capability gaps to be resolved in the 2009-2015 timeframe 6 of the 21 gaps describe DoD shortfalls in biometric standards. (Gaps #4, 5, 9, 12,
15, 17)

BTF Standards Initiatives/ActivitiesBTF Standards Initiatives/Activities
• To achieve interoperability and information sharing, BTF addresses five standards-related activities on behalf of DoD:
• Participation in Standards Bodies and Standards Development – Participant in 3 Standards Bodies; Sponsor and Editor of 6 standards; Developer of DoD EBTS
• Standards Adoption & Implementation – 29 standards adopted for use in DoD since 2004 and 17 standards currently under review for adoption
• Joint, Interagency & Multinational (JIM) Collaboration and Coordination – Coordinate across U.S. government and NATO, as needed
• Interoperability Tools Development – Developer of Conformance Testing and Quality Measurement Tools (BioAPI, Face, Finger)
• USG-wide and DoD Conformity Assessment Programs – DoD developing and coordinating a standardized, program for testing with partners

BTF is a voting member of the National Biometric Standards Body (INCITS M1) and a member of the U.S. Experts delegation to the International (JTC 1/SC 37) Biometric Standards Body: BTF maintains voting rights and advocates DoD interests with
regard to international standards at the national level. Coordinates DoD positions within M1 on national and international
standards. DoD influences the content and timeline of biometric standards
under development. Tracks biometric standards development activities and reports
progress and outcomes to the DoD community through the DoD Biometric Standards Working Group (BSWG).
Provides editorship, technical contributions, leadership for Ad-Hoc and Special Groups, and serves as the SC 37 Liaison to SC 27 (International Security Techniques Standards Body).
Also a member of Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) – a standards body on Web services and service-oriented architectures (SOA)

DoD EBTS v2.0 Emerging multimodal transmission specification for all DoD biometric systems DoD EBTS v2.0 published on 27 March 2009 and is now available! BTF develops and maintains specifications and will perform conformance
testing to this standard – current conformance testing conducted for v1.2 DoD’s implementation of ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2007 standard Provides increased flexibility to multiple mission sets through application
profiles Leverages the Integrated Data Dictionary, which standardizes a broad range of
data elements available for implementation in DoD biometric systems V2.0 is currently under review to be included in DISR as ‘Emerging’ – v1.2 is
currently ‘Mandated’ by DISR.
Obtaining a Copy of DoD EBTS v2.0 Contact Mr. Dale Hapeman at: dale.hapeman@dodbfc.army.mil or 304-326-
3029. DoD EBTS v2.0 is freely available to the general public. No restrictions apply.
Next Steps Initiate development of DoD EBTS XML Version (Based on ANSI/NIST-ITL 2-2008
(XML)) Consider best approach for BTF to use the National Information Exchange
Model (NIEM)

DoD Adoption and ImplementationDoD Adoption and ImplementationProcessProcess
BTF Standards Branch works closely with the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), the Executive Agent for standards within DoD
BTF submits published, high-priority standards to DISA for inclusion in the DoD Information Technology Registry (DISR): https://disronline.disa.mil (requires a CAC) All change requests originate in the DoD BSWG and are submitted to the
Security, Information Assurance and Cryptography, with Biometrics, Technical Working Group (SIAC TWG) for formal vetting by DISA.
For a current list of biometric standards adopted within DoD, go to the BTF website: http://www.biometrics.dod.mil Access to BSWG materials requires a DBEKS user account To qualify for access to DBEKS, you must be a U.S. government or
military employee or be capable of providing a valid U.S. government or military sponsor.

Interoperability Tools DevelopmentInteroperability Tools Development
To ensure interoperability, BTF is developing unique biometric conformance testing and image quality measurement algorithms and tools. Developed and publicly released the BioAPI CTS (first USG conformance testing
tool) – Feb 2006 Finger Image Quality Measurement (FIQM) – NIST testing complete Facial Image Quality Measurement (FaceQM) – NIST Phase I testing complete,
planning for Phase II testing underway Iris Image Quality Measurement – BTF coordinating with West Virginia University
to establish a joint development project
Development of Quality Measurement algorithms and tools is driven by DoD operational needs. Quality of biometric samples can be used to predict the accuracy of matching The tools are vendor-agnostic and suitable for use with any matching system The tools can be integrated with biometric enrollment applications Tools have been distributed to NSA, CIA, Navy, Air Force, IDProTECT Protoype
Team, Army G-2, and others
BTF Quality Measurement Tools are available to all government agencies. To obtain the quality tools, contact Dr. Robert Yen at: yen_robert@bah.com or
703-984-0434 To obtain the tools, you must be a U.S. government or military employee or be
capable of providing a valid U.S. government or military sponsor
