CCI-002005

For biometric-based authentication, employ mechanisms that satisfy organization-defined biometric quality requirements.

Implementation Guidance

The organization being inspected/assessed configures the information system to employ mechanisms that satisfy biometric quality requirements as defined in IA-5 (12), CCI 2004 for biometric-based authentication. For information system components that have applicable STIGs or SRGs, the organization being inspected/assessed must comply with the STIG/SRG guidance that pertains to CCI 2005.

Validation Procedures

The organization conducting the inspection/assessment examines the information system to ensure the organization being inspected/assessed configures the information system to employ mechanisms that satisfy biometric quality requirements as defined in IA-5 (12), CCI 2004 for biometric-based authentication. For information system components that have applicable STIGs or SRGs, the organization conducting the inspection/assessment evaluates the components to ensure that the organization being inspected/assessed has configured the information system in compliance with the applicable STIGs and SRGs pertaining to CCI 2005.
