Just came across this, anyone seen it? We do a fair amount of biometric access, so it's a concern for me.
I don't operate out of Illinois, but is this going to be a nationwide trend?

Jan 29, 2019This really makes no sense to me as most systems don't save your actual fingerprint or picture. They save points of data and even then the ones I have seen you couldn't even pull information out to even do anything with that data. Systems are built that way on purpose. Maybe equipment from years ago.

Jan 29, 2019The points of data, or meta-data you mention make perfect sense to an AI. A computer and the human have different ways to determine identity, catalog that data and use it to track, manipulate and get you. I'm so scared, joining the lawsuit right now. Pretty soon janitors will be swabbing the toilets for DNA, wait...they already do that!

Jan 31, 2019I agree with Shannon. I inquired about biometrics and what gets stored when we started using timeclocks with finger-scanners and face recognition inputs.
Fingerprinting and finger-scanning are different technologies. Fingerprinting collects and stores fingertip image. Finger-scanning doesn't store the image and the scan/data is converted to code..I've been told the algorithm to reverse engineer the code back to image is "virtually impossible" to execute. Same thing for the face-id terminal.
