Friday Feb 20 meeting follow-up
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! On Friday, we continued to work on our Brainstorm Map. Some expanding, some condensing, and connecting. Please review the Map before the next meeting and come prepared with updates/revisions/expansions. Still trying to finish this off so we can move on to the next step - which is corralling and prioritizing the information we want to cover in this group. https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/whiteboard/1559691267?a...

The Group liked the idea of framing the output in terms of Use Case Categories—thanks, Elaine —and then considering models that cross use cases—thanks, Tim. The notes are a bit sparse. I will try to organize this better so it makes more sense. Here are the notes: https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1613037569/Group+...

Greetings Everyone, I thought I had sent an email after last week’s meeting with this week’s agenda, but I cannot find it. My apologies. A couple of things: 1. The group denied that we have completed the extensive brainstorming process and now need to narrow our focus and get to work. 2. We have had small groups the past few weeks. I encourage you to attend our meetings regularly. If you cannot, please excuse yourself. We need to know how many active participants we have, as this will impact the group's scope. 3. The group decided that we should focus on output and work back to prioritize content 4. The Agenda<https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1640595460/Mar+13+2026?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiZGNjNmMwMjY3MzkwNGMwMGIyZTE1MTM3ZWNmNTk3OTkiLCJwIjoiYyJ9> is below. Our plan for tomorrow is to revisit our purpose, narrow or refine as needed, and if we get through that, begin to define the output. 5. Please feel free to invite anyone whom you believe can add value to our group. BDDG Agenda - March 13, 2026 1. ADMIN: * Attendance * Approve Meeting Notes: Feb 20, Feb 27, Mar 6 * Anything else? 2. Revisit Group Purpose - narrow, refine * The Biometric Data Discussion Group (Biometrics) will address the management, security, and privacy of biometric data, from collection to destruction, with a focus on practical application and GDPR compliance. While standards do exist, they are often inaccessible to non-experts and there is a need to decode and translate existing standards into a straightforward, practical guide for real-world application. Biometrics will develop a set of recommendations and best practices for biometric data management to fill this need for use alongside the standards. 3. Define Output - narrow, refine * Continue work on Output Framework https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DD/pages/1613037569 Cheers, Maxine Group Brainstorm https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/whiteboard/1559691267?a...

Happy Friday! It is forecast to be a record-breaking 84 here today during what is supposed to be our snowiest month in Boulder County, Colorado. Today’s Meeting 1.

Today’s Meeting Notes https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1682341889/BDDG+0... BDDG Agenda - March 20, 2026 1.

Discuss Updated Group Purpose * Revision * Group Consensus https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1682472962/Group+... ORIGINAL GROUP PURPOSE - The Biometric Data Discussion Group (BDDG) will address the management, security, and privacy of biometric data, from collection to destruction, with a focus on practical application and regulatory compliance. While standards do exist, they are often inaccessible to non-experts, and there is a need to decode and translate existing standards into a straightforward, practical guide for real-world application. BDDG will develop a set of recommendations and best practices for biometric data management to fill this need for use alongside existing standards. PROPOSED GROUP PURPOSE The Biometric Data Discussion Group (Biometrics) will address the management, security, and privacy of biometric data, from collection to destruction, with a focus on practical applications. While standards, regulations, some social norms, and industry assumptions exist, they are often vague, inaccessible, not well understood, or simply unknown to the non-experts tasked with building, integrating, and/or deploying biometric-based solutions. There is a need for straightforward, practical guidance on product and solution development and deployment, in the form of expert recommendations, that can be used by business line, product, and technical teams to ground critical early-stage architecture, process, UIX, CX, etc., decisions on well-established best practices for biometric data management. Best practices designed to protect and preserve privacy while minimizing data exposure and other unexpected and unintentional negative impacts on PII. These recommendations and best practices aren't prescriptive for standards compliance or a replacement for internal analysis and governance. Instead, they are designed to help avoid critical-path mistakes early in product and solution development. The Biometric group will develop a set of recommendations and best practices for biometric data management to fill this need for use alongside existing relevant standards. 1.

Please review, make edits, and come prepared to discuss next week. 2. TOMORROW: We will continue our discussion about refining the group's purpose. Agenda<https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1682046977/Mar+27+2026?atlOrigin=eyJpIjoiODVkZjIwYzE0NDM1NDg1Yjk4NjgzZjEwNDAxMTRmYzUiLCJwIjoiYyJ9> is below. 3. Please feel free to invite anyone whom you believe can add value to our group. 4. We had a small group last week. I encourage you to attend our meetings regularly. If you cannot, please step out of the group. We need to know how many active participants we have, as this will affect the scope of the group's output. 5. LAST WEEK’s Meeting Notes https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1682341889/BDDG+0... BDDG Agenda - March 27, 2026 1. ADMIN: * Attendance * Approve Meeting Notes: Mar 13, Mar 20 * Anything else? 2. Discuss Updated Group Purpose * Revision * Group Consensus https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1682472962/Group+... ORIGINAL GROUP PURPOSE - The Biometric Data Discussion Group (BDDG) will address the management, security, and privacy of biometric data, from collection to destruction, with a focus on practical application and regulatory compliance. While standards do exist, they are often inaccessible to non-experts, and there is a need to decode and translate existing standards into a straightforward, practical guide for real-world application. BDDG will develop a set of recommendations and best practices for biometric data management to fill this need for use alongside existing standards. PROPOSED GROUP PURPOSE The Biometric Data Discussion Group (Biometrics) will address the management, security, and privacy of biometric data, from collection to destruction, with a focus on practical applications. While standards, regulations, some social norms, and industry assumptions exist, they are often vague, inaccessible, not well understood, or simply unknown to the non-experts tasked with building, integrating, and/or deploying biometric-based solutions. There is a need for straightforward, practical guidance on product and solution development and deployment, in the form of expert recommendations, that can be used by business line, product, and technical teams to ground critical early-stage architecture, process, UIX, CX, etc., decisions on well-established best practices for biometric data management. Best practices designed to protect and preserve privacy while minimizing data exposure and other unexpected and unintentional negative impacts on PII. These recommendations and best practices aren't prescriptive for standards compliance or a replacement for internal analysis and governance. Instead, they are designed to help avoid critical-path mistakes early in product and solution development. The Biometric group will develop a set of recommendations and best practices for biometric data management to fill this need for use alongside existing relevant standards. 1. If time allows, discuss the plan for moving forward with the Two-Part Decision Tree Approach * Process Defined = https://kantara.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/biometrics/pages/1681227785/Two-pa...
