Lab to test new measures that could help eliminate identity theft
UK scientists at the National Physical Laboratory will take part in a new project targeting identity theft that should help all of Europe. The initiative, which has been nicknamed “Biotesting Europe,” is partially funded by the European Union. The scientists feel that most biometric systems are currently used for more secure purposes such as border control, but believe they could also be used in a domestic context to reduce identity theft. According to the report at vnunet.com, the National Physical Laboratory hopes to outline a more secure way to protect one’s identity.
