Program - 2017

Biometric technologies are now being actively introduced into many sectors of the economy. Approved standards allow to develop a unified approach in terminology, architecture, in the order of testing, in unification, interchangeability, etc. Non-use of unified requirements leads to: - misunderstanding between customers and executors (vendors): the customer and the vendor talk using different terms and differently imagine the process of testing; - Depending on one solution (one vendor): the solutions of one vendor are not interchangeable if necessary; - appearance of poor-quality (or non-standardized) input data; - the inability to use test results for subsequent analysis and comparison with other vendors. In my speech, I will try to increase confidence in biometric technologies, as well as introduce all to the standards for basic biometric characteristics. Viewers of my speech will get an idea of ​​the current national standards for each biometric technology, learn about the importance and necessity of observing these standards. We will talk about where it is necessary to apply for the unification of biometric technologies in Russia. The audience will learn about the prospects for standardization in the field of biometric technologies, both internationally and nationally.

Biometrics is one of the most actively developing areas of the modern IT industry. The annual growth rates of the biometric market reach 20-25%, which significantly exceeds the average growth rates of the market. First of all, such rapid growth is due to the fact that business has realized in the past two or three years that biometrics is not just a beautiful toy, but a new level of security, new opportunities, new ways of providing communication with the client, a way to realize the concept of "know your client ". This year a number of key players in the financial market, transport and sports subjects announced large-scale plans to introduce biometrics into their business. In my report I will talk about the formation and development of the biometric market in retrospect of 5-10 years, I will note the modern possibilities of biometric technologies for solving a wide range of problems in our daily life, as well as affect technological trends for the coming years. I hope that my report will be useful to security and IT professionals, business development managers and ordinary listeners who want to know the path of biometrics in recent years, what new opportunities and new risks this new technology will bring in our life.
