UK’s 415 million euros biometric scheme to load passports with information such as fingerprints, facial scans and iris patterns is in jeopardy now. Reportedly, the biometric solution, used by UK and other countries, have been cloned by a German security consultant.
According to Lukas Grunwald, a consultant with DN-Systems, told a Defcon security conference in Las Vegas that the data, stored on RFID chips, could be copied on to blank chips which could then be used in fake passports.
