US: ID Cards mit Biometrie-.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- Transportation enthält wohl kaum zufällig die Forderung nach Richtlinien zur Einrichtung digitaler Information auf National ID Cards. Zur Prävention von Fälschung ebenso wie auch zur Einrichtung von biometrischen Scannern auf allen amerikanischen Flughäfen. Dass im selben Atemzug auf Fingerprinttechnologie hingewiesen wird, ist nicht weiter verwunderlich und läßt genug Spekulation zu, wie man sich dies im Detail vorgestellt hat. -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- 76 576 107 th Congress Report HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 1st Session 107 308 MAKING APPROPRIATIONS FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND RELATED AGENCIES FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2002, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES [...] Model guidelines for encoded data on driver's licenses.-- In light of the terrorist attacks of September 11th, it is clear that all levels of government need to work in concert to deter and prevent future attacks. One means of doing so is to ensure that individuals asked to identify themselves are not using false identities. The increasing availability through the internet of expertly crafted false identification makes the task very difficult. The conferees are aware of technology, existing today, that can quickly scan any encoded data on the reverse of a driver's license to validate the license as legitimately issued. By reviewing personal data encoded on the license, it can also be used to assist in making a quick determination that the person displaying the license is the person to whom it was issued. The conferees strongly encourage the department to consider the development of model guidelines specifying the types of encoded data that should be placed on driver's licenses for security purposes, and to work in concert with states and related licensing bodies toward the early implementation of such measures. This could benefit the nation's efforts to improve security as well as assist in reducing fraud and underage drinking. Document and biometric scanning technologies. --Document and biometric scanners linked to federal databases by computers and containing advanced authentication capabilities would facilitate the processing of background checks, provide fingerprint and additional biometric identification capabilities, and authenticate documents presented for identification. It is the conferees' understanding that such off the shelf, commercially available technology is in use or being tested by the Immigration and Naturalization Service. The conferees encourage FAA to assess such document and biometric scanning technologies for use at all commercial service airports. The conferees also recommend that the Secretary implement standards to make use of technologies that quickly and inexpensively assess the daily fitness-for-duty of airport security screeners with respect to impairment due to illegal drugs, sleep deprivation, legal medications, and alcohol. Fingerprint identification technologies. --The conferees are aware of the promise of forensic-quality fingerprint and palmprint identification technologies for the rapid verification of identities and employee background checks. The Aviation and Transportation Security Act requires the department to investigate the application of biometric technologies such as these off the shelf systems. The conferees encourage FAA and the Transportation Security Administration to evaluate these technologies for their immediate application to aviation security missions.
