The increase in terrorism and identity fraud has forced governments worldwide to make a
combined e ort to enhance the security of national borders. Biometric passports are the emergent
identity travel document deployed in guaranteeing the safekeeping of the entry point of the border
and limiting the usage of counterfeit documents. This study analyzes users’ concerns and threats to
the biometric passport delivery system in Uganda, where the first biometric passports are planned for
rollout in 2019. We used a mixed approach to compute and articulate the results. Factors impacting
fear of technology like disclosure of personal data, improper data transmission, and data abuse were
determined. Relevance knowledge of preferred technology such as the personal experience of the
technology, data privacy awareness and perceived usefulness was confirmed. Threats and attacks on
the technology such as counterfeit and brute-force were identified. It is important for policymakers
and security expertise to understand that biometric technologies evoke fears of privacy and public
liberties infringements. Therefore, end user’s acceptance of biometric passports will be dependent on
the degree of trust in the technology itself and in those operating the applications. |
