Biometric Data, Biometric Systems, Electronic Passport, ICTAbstract
The evolution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has enabled governments to deliver services to citizens more efficiently and effectively. This study conducts a literature review on electronic passports to examine the implications of biometric technology in their implementation. A qualitative methodology was adopted, based on documentary analysis of articles published in specialized academic journals. The findings indicate that biometric data used in electronic passports include facial recognition, fingerprints, and iris recognition. Additionally, continuous review and updating of technology are required to prevent potential forgery and identity theft.
