Abstract
An example computing device includes a shares generation unit configured to generate secret shares of biometric information of a user; a storage interface configured to interface with storage nodes for storing each of the secret shares to a corresponding one of the storage nodes; and a computation engine configured to perform re-enrollment by outputting a plurality of messages to instruct each of the storage nodes to generate a respective share of a new helper data in accordance with the secret shares of the biometric information and a secure computation protocol, receive the respective share of the new helper data from two or more storage nodes, and determine the new helper data based on the respective share of the new helper data from each of the two or more storage nodes for subsequent authentication of the user, wherein the re-enrollment occurs without receiving additional/repeat biometric information, thereby resulting in faster re-enrollment.
