System, method and program product for recording creation of a cancelable biometric reference template in a biometric event journal record
First Claim
1. A method for recording creation of a cancelable biometric reference template, said method comprising:
- creating, by a processor of a computer system, a base biometric reference template, said creating comprising inserting, into the base biometric reference template, a unique base biometric reference template identifier that uniquely identifies base biometric data collected for an individual, the base biometric data, and a biometric type indicator providing an indication of a portion of the individual'"'"'s body used for collecting the base biometric data;
said processor applying a data transform function having a function key value to the base biometric reference template to create a cancelable biometric reference template; and
said processor recording the cancelable biometric reference template in a biometric event journal record.

Abstract
A system, method and program product for recording the creation of a cancelable biometric reference template in a biometric event journal record. The method includes providing a base biometric reference template having a unique base reference template identifier that uniquely identifies base biometric data collected for an individual, applying a data transform function having a first function key value to the base biometric reference template to create one cancelable biometric reference template and recording the one cancelable biometric reference template in a biometric event journal record. The method further includes creating additional cancelable biometric reference templates using different function key values of the data transform function. The method further includes encrypting the data transform function and the function key value applied to the base biometric reference template. The method further includes signing the cancelable biometric reference template and signing the biometric event journal with a digital signature.
