Biometrics Update: DINZ and NEC Webinar in Review

Biometrics are transforming the integration of our physical and digital worlds, especially in decentralised identity systems. Technologies like fingerprint and facial recognition not only enhance security but also provide a seamless way to verify identities while safeguarding user privacy. As New Zealand progresses with its Digital Identity Services Trust Framework (DISTF), these innovations empower individuals with greater control over their personal data.

In September, DINZ hosted a webinar featuring industry leaders including Steven Graham and Graeme Prentice from NEC, Roger Ford from Innovise NZ, Dr Vica Papp, from Digital Identity NZ and James Little, from DIA. They shared insights on the pivotal role of biometrics in shaping the future of digital identity.
