BC 2006 Conference

The 2006 Biometric Consortium Conference will address the latest trends in biometrics research, development and application on biometric technologies. This conference addresses the important role that biometrics can play in the identification and verification of individuals in this age of heightened security and privacy by examining biometric-based solutions for homeland security (airport security, travel documents, visas, border control, prevention of ID theft) as well as the utilization of biometrics in other applications such as point of sale and large-scale enterprise network environments. The Biometrics Symposium is again offered as part of the conference. Other topic areas: biometrics privacy and security and government and commercial implementations and initiatives. The tutorial: “Introduction to Biometrics” will be offered again this year as part of the conference.
