GOST R 58624.3-2019 PDF

Full title and description

GOST R 58624.3-2019 (ИСО/МЭК 30107-3:2017). Information technology — Biometrics — Biometric presentation attack detection — Part 3: Testing and reporting. The standard establishes test methods, evaluation levels and reporting formats for assessing the performance of biometric presentation attack detection (PAD) methods and systems.

Abstract

This national adoption/modification of ISO/IEC 30107-3:2017 specifies requirements for designing and conducting tests of biometric presentation attack detection (PAD) methods and for producing standardized test reports. It defines evaluation levels (subsystem and end-to-end), required test artefacts and datasets, performance metrics (for example APCER/BPCER and related measures), and minimum reporting content to enable reproducible, comparable PAD testing. The document was approved by the Russian Federal Agency for Technical Regulation and Metrology (Rosstandart) and introduced for use on 1 June 2020.

Scope

GOST R 58624.3-2019 defines the scope, structure and requirements for laboratory and field tests intended to evaluate the effectiveness, robustness and reliability of biometric presentation attack detection methods. The scope covers: classification of presentation attack instruments (PAIs), preparation of test datasets, recommended test protocols for different evaluation levels (component/subsystem and system-level), quantitative performance metrics, and the required content and format of test reports to support repeatability and comparability of results. The standard is a national, modified adoption of ISO/IEC 30107-3:2017 and aligns Russian testing practice with that international framework.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and terminology for presentation attacks and attack presentation instruments (PAIs).
• Classification of evaluation levels (subsystem/component vs end-to-end system testing) and how to select the appropriate level for a given method.
• Specification of test artefacts, controlled and adversarial sample sets, and dataset construction rules to ensure representativeness and repeatability.
• Mandatory performance metrics (e.g., Attack Presentation Classification Error Rate — APCER; Bona Fide Presentation Classification Error Rate — BPCER; related aggregate measures) and guidance on their computation and interpretation.
• Test protocol design, including sample sizes, test conditions, environmental controls, and handling of “failure to acquire” events.
• Required structure and content of test reports to enable transparent, reproducible reporting of PAD test results (test objectives, methods, datasets, metrics, uncertainty and limitations).
• Conformance and compliance statements describing how to claim conformity with the standard and how to document deviations or extensions.

Typical use and users

This standard is used by biometric system vendors, PAD algorithm developers, independent test laboratories, certification bodies, government agencies, integrators and research organizations. It supports reproducible laboratory and field testing for product evaluation, regulatory compliance, procurement specifications, and academic studies comparing PAD methods.

Related standards

GOST R 58624.3-2019 is part of the GOST R 58624 series on biometric presentation attack detection and is a national adoption of the ISO/IEC 30107 family. Closely related documents include:

- GOST R 58624.1-2019 — Part 1: Framework (biometric PAD framework and general principles).
