subordinate to it.
Vladimir Aryshev, an expert in complex information security projects at the network and system integrator STEP LOGIC (OOO Step Logic), believes that, from the point of view of information security, the more information systems with which biometrics can be submitted, the higher the risk of its leakage.
"The document mentions croatia whatsapp number database that the regional segment is not intended for identification and is planned for use in low-risk operations at the regional level: payment for transport, entry into the territory, etc. This means that the functions and implementation will differ from the Unified Biometric System, the platform and integration, respectively, too. However, the biometric data itself - or their digital fingerprints - must be the same. And if they are stored and transmitted in this segment, there are risks associated with their compromise," Vladimir Aryshev noted.
nd Digital Transformation at JSC Smart Business Technologies (RDTECH), believes that if we assume that submitting biometric data through Gosuslugi and banks is safe, then no new technological risks should arise when using additional services.
"There remain organizational risks, actions of unscrupulous employees, etc., the probability of which is proportional to the number of people and services that have access to biometric data. But the state is actively forming and improving the legal framework related to the storage and processing of sensitive data," added Evgeny Osminin.
At the end of 2022, Federal Law No. 572-FZ was adopted, which regulates various aspects of the collection and storage of biometric data. According to Evgeny Osminin, additional regulatory documents should be expected in the near future, including those regulating the activities of operators providing services for the collection of personal data.
Will other regional segments of the Unified Biometric System appear?
According to the Center for Biometric Technologies, the Russian government makes a decision to create a regional segment when a region already has a developed infrastructure of biometric services: inclusion of regional information systems in the Unified Biometric System as its regional segment allows for budget savings and preservation of regional services already familiar to users unchanged.
Oleg Ovsyankin, a leading expert in the development of innovative solutions at STEP LOGIC, believes that the creation of a regional segment of the Unified Biometric System will allow the preservation of services that Muscovites are accustomed to during the establishment of a unified biometric identification system throughout the country.
"It is likely that this trend will later be in demand in other regions. It is reasonable not to waste resources on transmitting digital fingerprints of a resident of Samara or Novosibirsk, who wants to pay for a metro ride using biometrics, to a central operator if they can be processed much closer. Thus, the level of use of biometric services of the state and near-government structures will actively grow," Oleg Ovsyankin believes.
