We lack a logical connection between the two, here.
Security is firstly a matter of policy, processes, and organization. Technology can be any technology as long as it helps to reach the goals. Personally, I still see too many limitations in the large scale adoption of biometrics, both technical and socio/political (it may very well be that I am biased since in Italy we have one of the most, if not the most, strict privacy law). -- Alessandro Bottonelli Owner of Axis-Net.it
