- DTL&type=printable How We Are Fighting the War on Terrorism IDs and the illusion of security Bruce Schneier Tuesday, February 3, 2004 San Francisco Chronicle | Feedback | FAQ In recent years there has been an increased use of identification checks as a security measure. ... The ostensible reason is that ID checks make us all safer, but that's just not so. In most cases, identification has very little to do with security. Let's debunk the myths: First, verifying that someone has a photo ID is a completely useless security measure. ... Or if you don't want to buy IDs online, just ask any teenager where to get a fake ID. Harder-to-forge IDs only help marginally, because the problem is not making sure the ID is valid. This is the second myth of ID checks: that identification combined with profiling can be an indicator of intention. ... In an ideal world, what we would want is some kind of ID that denotes intention. We'd want all terrorists to carry a card that says "evildoer" and everyone else to carry a card that said "honest person who won't try to hijack or blow up anything. " Then, security would be easy. ... People are divided into two categories based on various criteria: the traveler's address, credit history and police and tax records; flight origin and destination; whether the ticket was purchased by cash, check or credit card; whether the ticket is one way or round trip; whether the traveler is alone or with a larger party; how frequently the traveler flies; and how long before departure the ticket was purchased.

- This is inevitable because the modern ID card is no simple piece of plastic. ...
- Almost every national ID card system introduced in the past 15 years has contained three components with the potential to devastate personal freedom and privacy.
- After all, authorities will want to be able to demand the card in a wide range of circumstances, and people must be compelled to comply.
- The most significant, yet most subtle, element is that the card and its numbering system will permit the linking of information between all government departments. ...
- Such a system, linked through tens of thousand of card readers to a central database, is the conventional means of dealing with the problem of counterfeit cards.
- Criminals and terrorists can move more freely and more safely with several fake identities than they ever could in a country with multiple forms of ID.
- The card and the finger are placed into a reader, and the person is "validated".
- Instead, the new ID systems are benignly promoted as "citizen cards" that guarantee entitlement to benefits and services.
- Five years ago, the Government quietly buried proposals for ID cards when it discovered that they would cost billions of pounds more than expected, would do little to prevent crime, and might become wildly unpopular.
- If an ID card was unworkable five years ago, why would it work now? The short answer is that it would not - unless the biometric were added and the whole system verified through a national database. That is not a card: it is a national surveillance infrastructure.
- First, a high-security card will become an internal passport, demanded in limitless situations. ...

- Drivers license, National ID, Voter Registration, Gun license, Proof-of-Age card, and Employee ID are all examples of real world ID card applications, and they all have one thing in common: They must be completely protected against forgery.
- An ID card that can be forged is worse than no ID card at all, because anyone with the basic skills, or the cash, can rapidly obtain a counterfeit version. ...
- The Magicard printer family contains everything you need to create colorful, practical, ID cards and badges for every application, plus it offers complete protection against counterfeiting through the use of either a hologram laminate, or by the use of Ultra's unique, low cost, HoloKote ™ technology.
- Card Design.
- For any ID application, getting the initial card design right is essential, and one of the most important factors is ensuring that the portrait is large enough to be identified clearly in the circumstances in which the card is to be used.
- For "hand held" identification applications like a drivers license, portraits of around one inch square are likely to be adequate, but if viewing at a distance, or in poor light is required, as with airport ID badges for example, then portraits should be as large as practicable : 2 inches square will work reliably at viewing distances of up to fifteen feet, for example.
- For clear crisp text and Barcodes, the use of the black resin, or K panel, is advisable, although many card designs use a mixture of large "color" text with smaller "black resin" data.
- If there is more data than can conveniently fit on one side of a CR-80 card, or which is not normally required for public display, then this can be printed on the reverse of the card using the Magicard Tango duplex printer. The most economic dual sided card would use full color and black resin on the front, with black resin only on the reverse. ...
- It is also possible to put full color and black resin on both sides of the card, using the Tango printer and two sets of LC1 YMCKO dye ribbon panels. ...
- Card Security & Protection.
- With the card layout and usage determined, the subject of physical protection and the prevention of counterfeiting becomes the next pRiority.

- Uses of the Stanford ID Card and Electronic Records of Card Activity Although use of the card throughout campus is expected to expand with time, it presently serves four primary purposes: (1) to allow eligible members of the Stanford community access to certain campus facilities and services; (2) as a meal card for student Dining Services; (3) as the debit card for one's StanfordCardPlan account; and (4) as a library card for checking out books and other materials from the campus library system. Electronic records of the first three activities are kept in the Campus Card system, which is managed by CNS. ...
- The primary use of the Stanford ID Card is to verify a cardholder's status as a member of the Stanford community. To enter certain campus facilities - the various fitness centers, for example - one merely needs to show his Stanford ID Card. But increasingly, to gain access to other campus facilities and services, an individual must present his card, which is then "read" by an electronic scanner that verifies that the cardholder is eligible to use that facility or service. ... Presently, the production and electronic scanning of the Stanford ID Card are required to enter certain libraries, including Green, Meyer, Lane, Law, and Jackson, as well as the weight rooms at Arrillaga, Ford and Tresidder Fitness Centers; to use the services offered by the Stanford Housing Office; to use the services of Cowell Student Health Center; to purchase discounted athletic tickets; to receive discounts from the Stanford Bookstore's Microdisc Department; and to obtain student loan checks from the Bursar's Office. It is expected that the number of campus facilities and services whose access requires the electronic scanning of the Stanford ID Card will increase in the future. ...
- When the electronic scanners at Green Library or Cowell Health Center, for example, read an individual's card, they merely indicate whether or not the cardholder's status at the University makes her eligible to use that particular facility or service. The Campus Card System electronically records that at a certain time, the card belonging to a particular cardholder was read by that particular scanner, and whether access to that facility or service was permitted or denied. ... , verification of his status as a member of the faculty would create a record stating that at that date and time his Stanford ID Card was read by a scanner identified only by a number and that X was indeed a current member of the faculty. Or, if Student Y visited Cowell Health Center to get a flu shot, a scan of his Stanford ID Card would create a record stating that at 2:34 p. ... on November 16, 2000, his card has read by a specific scanner and that Y, as a registered student, was eligible to use the Center. ...
- Note, however, that the electronic records created by these activities in the Campus Card system do not presently record any additional information about the cardholder's use of the facility or service. ... The records only note that a particular scanner, identified by a corresponding number, read the card; the records do not indicate, for example, that card scanners at Green Library or Cowell Health Center correspond with particular scanner numbers. ...

- Security, Fear, and National ID Cards.
- In the first weeks after 11 September, with diverse figures calling for creation of a national identity card, New Yorkers recognized a need for greater personal identification. At the IEEE Spectrum editorial offices (about 5 km from Ground Zero, and two blocks from the now-tallest building in the city), building ID cards, previously optional, are now obligatory. In many offices, visitors are required to either be listed in advance by name, sign a logbook, or produce a photo ID that matches the name.

In order to stress-test every aspect of the modern identity process, I diligently entered a false name, address, and social security number. ...
- I producedfor the same guard who had looked at my building picture ID for the past three weeks (and, admittedly, a thousand other peoples)my new New York State generic ID. ...
- Here I actually put the badge down on the guards table as I signed the book with one name while the ID said another. ... In the newly security-conscious New York, this turned out not to be a problem.
- National ID: Better or Worse Security?.
- Would a national identity card provide better security than what you can buy in Times Square? Oracle's Larry Ellison and civil liberties lawyer Alan Dershowitz, among others, think so. But even if such an ID were harder to obtain, surely it would not be very difficult for a determined criminal. ...
