Current Language

1194.26 (c) When biometric forms of user identification or control are used, an alternative form of identification or activation, which does not require the user to possess particular biological characteristics, shall also be provided.

ISSUES

  • TEITAC charge to reconsider need for non-biometric
  • comments on list RE Biometric ID vs Biometric control

Possible for discussion

What about:

When biometric forms of user identification or control are used, an alternative form of identification or activation shall also be provided that does not require use of body parts that they user may not have.

- this would allow biometric systems in the future that are based on circulatory system or other characteristics that all people must have.
