Specification for WS-Biometric Devices (WS-BD) Version 1

Specification for WS-Biometric Devices (WS-BD) Version 1 by Kevin Mangold provides a technical framework for the next generation of biometric hardware. As web services become a standard communications bus, the need for interoperable, secure, and tamperproof biometric devices grows. This volume 1 text addresses the critical requirement for a communications protocol that remains globally connected while remaining independent of specific operating systems, device drivers, or form factors.

This computer and technology publication focuses on the WS-Biometric Devices (WS-BD) Version 1 protocol to solve complex integration challenges. The author concentrates on the acquisition process, which serves as the single shared process across all biometric systems. By removing the constraints of low-level communications protocols, Specification for WS-Biometric Devices (WS-BD) Version 1 offers a specialized look at creating intelligent and spoof resistant biometric technology through standardized web service communication.
