Dear Mr. Cannon,
Thank you for your comment on M1 Letter Ballot M1/03-0420.

Cross
Match Technologies, Inc. I am voting no because of one small but important issue regarding the proposed architecture. The profile specifies that the application would provide the GUID to the biometric system. To me, this is backwards and represents a security problem. The biometric system should, upon enollment, provide a unique id code. This allows for the protection of privacy from the perspective of the biometric system. If the system has access to the application IDs, then basically the system could gain access to other information with that id. |

Requires comprehensive solution with proposed text. |
