Abstract: Generating a seed and/or a key from live biometric indicia, such that all the information necessary for generating the seed and/or the key is not stored, is provided. A method comprises receiving and enrolling a biometric template from a user; assigning an optimization value to the enrolled biometric template; encrypting an item of test data using the optimization value, such that the optimization value is an encryption seed; storing the encrypted item of test data on the storage medium; destroying the encryption seed after encrypting the item of test data; receiving a live biometric template; comparing the templates and determining an interval based on a probability that the templates are specific to the same user; iteratively testing values within the interval to identify the value in the interval for decrypting the encrypted item of test data; and generating the key using the seed.

Abstract: An enterprise biometric authentication system for use with a network of client computing devices, each client computing device executing an operating system with a biometric framework component including a client biometric service, a client engine adapter, a client engine wrapper, and a server subsystem further including a server database, a server storage adapter, a server engine adapter, and a server component. The client engine wrapper resides on a client computing device and is operable to intercept requests from the client biometric service to the client engine adapter and to transmit the requests. The server storage adapter may store and retrieve biometric templates from the server database. The server engine adapter may generate and compare biometric templates. The server component may receive the requests from the client engine wrapper, forward the requests to the server engine adapter, and transmit results of the requests to the client engine wrapper.
