Abstract: A biometric data brokerage system (BDPS) and method for transfer of biometric records between at least one biometric collection device (BCD) and at least one biometric processing service (BPS) are disclosed. Embodiments provide a BDPS that utilizes biometric record translation routines that allow for biometric record submissions from any BCD to any BPS, regardless of biometric record format requirements. The need for costly and proprietary biometric record formatting software on BCDs is thereby eliminated.

Abstract: What is disclosed is a system and method that allows a secondary certificate authority to rely on one or more existing primary certificate authorities to establish identity of a user and provide identity certificates. The secondary certificate authority applies business rules to those identity certificates to establish a community of privilege, and then issues and maintains new privilege certificates without issuing new private keys or smart cards. The new privilege certificates bind the original identity, the sponsor, i.e., the primary certificate authority, and the privilege. The new privilege certificates can be used on a Public Key Infrastructures (PKI) transaction basis, for example, to grant access to unclassified and Multi-Level Secure (MLS) resources without further reference to the existing primary certificate authorities.

Abstract: A method and system provide efficient exception handling of the production process of PIV smartcards. Specifically, an automatic personal identity verification (AutoPIV) system and process manage potential failures in identification for agencies, such as a breakdown in correct identification. The AutoPIV system and process may deny access to individuals falsely claiming to be someone with legitimate access rights. The AutoPIV system and process may also accurately identify those with legitimate access rights.

Abstract: A method and system use a biometric personal identity verification (BioPIV) system to provide a fingerprint enabled wireless add-on for personal identification number (PIN) accessible smartcards. The BioPIV system may function as a trusted biometric reader and a smartcard reader with full remote functionality for both logical and physical access.
