During the discussion "A Business View of Security" at the SOC Forum 2022, its participants showed rare unanimity in assessing the immediate prospects for using biometric identification. According to Dmitry Nazipov, IT Director and First Vice President of Gazprombank JSC, their implementation is not costa rica cell phone number list even a matter of tomorrow, but of the day after tomorrow. The most problematic aspects, in his opinion, are the speed of such technologies and their high cost.

referred to the results of a practical experiment on the use of biometric passenger identification technologies. The result was negative: the time required for identification increased compared to traditional document scanning. Plus, the equipment required for biometric identification was more expensive.

IT Director, Vice President, Member of the Board of MTS Bank Alexey Klepikov reminded that recent changes in the legislation on personal data protection significantly strengthen the requirements for the protection of biometric information.
