BixeLab Confirms UN Pension Biometric Defenses Meet ISO Standard With 1.25% APAR

1 articles · Updated · Biometric Update · Jul 9

BixeLab said the UN Joint Staff Pension Fund’s Digital CE v4.2.4 passed ISO/IEC 30107-3 testing for biometric spoof protection at Levels A and B across iOS and Android deployments.
The strongest result came from the full PAD system, which logged a 1.25% attack presentation acceptance rate across 720 attacks and no bona fide classification errors; the PAD subsystem posted the same rate.
The data-capture subsystem blocked all Level A attacks but missed 31 Level B attempts, producing a 4.3% APAR across 720 attacks, with zero failure-to-acquire errors in 12 bona fide presentations.
The testing covered the data-capture, PAD and full PAD layers of the face-authentication workflow, but excluded the UN’s Video Call Verification process that adds a human review step.
The checks support the UN pension fund’s modernization of beneficiary verification for more than 70,000 recipients through its blockchain-based Digital Certificate of Entitlement system.
