What is Biometrics?

Biometrics allows a person to be identified and authenticated based on recognisable and verifiable data, which are unique and specific to them.

Biometric authentication compares data for the person’s characteristics to that person’s biometric template (ID Document Drivers Licence or Passport) to determine resemblance.

Biometric identification aims to determine the identity of a person – i.e. “Are you indeed, Mr or Mrs. X?”
