HSPD-12 RESOURCES

Biometrics is a process of identifying a person by their unique and measurable human characteristics. A person's biometric characteristic can be the size and shape of a hand, the ridge and valley pattern of a fingerprint, the frequency of voice or iris characteristics of the eye. There are even more biometric modalities such as the Iris and the hand vein among others. Through the menu on the left you can access the different resources and the latest on biometrics in the news.

HSPD12 mandates the use of a biometric modality in the card to uniquely identify a person.
