4 Ways COVID-19 Will Change the Adoption of Biometrics

▤ Summary

Many local and state governments are initiating early release programs or suspending bail requirements. Law enforcement needs additional and expanded tools to identify and track people who are outside of the system. Some experts suggest the use of biometrics to provide people with digital health certificates to verify they have had the disease. People are more wary of touching keypads, card readers, door handles and even elevator buttons. The industry as a whole must educate people about privacy issues and develop best practices for the handling and storage of digital identity data.
