A unique identifier (UID) is an identifier that is guaranteed to be unique among all identifiers used for those objects and for a specific purpose. The concept was formalized early in the development of Computer science and Information systems.

Biometrics

Biometrics are body measurements and calculations related to human characteristics. Biometric authentication (or realistic authentication) is used in computer science as a form of identification and access control. It is also used to identify individuals in groups that are under surveillance.

Biometric identifiers are the distinctive, measurable characteristics used to label and describe individuals. Biometric identifiers are often categorized as physiological characteristics which are related to the shape of the body. Examples include, but are not limited to fingerprint, palm veins, face recognition, DNA, palm print, hand geometry, iris recognition, retina, odor/scent, voice, shape of ears and gait. Behavioral characteristics are related to the pattern of behavior of a person, including but not limited to mouse movement, typing rhythm, gait, signature, behavioral profiling, and credentials. Some researchers have coined the term behaviometrics to describe the latter class of biometrics.

More traditional means of access control include token-based identification systems, such as a driver's license or passport, and knowledge-based identification systems, such as a password or personal identification number. Since biometric identifiers are unique to individuals, they are more reliable in verifying identity than token and knowledge-based methods; however, the collection of biometric identifiers raises privacy concerns about the ultimate use of this information.

Examples of use of biometric identifier
1. The new passports will contain a paper–thin contactless computer chip which would contain the facial data and potentially another biometric identifier.
2. These will be checked against the "biometric identifier" – electronic eye scan or fingerprint – in the passenger‘s passport or identity card when they check in.
3. However, they leave open the possibility that the computer chip containing facial data and potentially another biometric identifier might wear out within a shorter period and might need to be replaced.
4. This prerequisite is mandated by the Enhanced Border Security and Visa Entry Reform Act of 2002 which calls for any passport issued after October 26, 2005, and used for VWP travel, to include a biometric identifier, such as a digital photo.
5. Department of Homeland Security, in recent months, has clarified requirements for continued participation in the VWP. (See related article.) Commenting on the decision to give Visa Waiver Program countries until October 2006 to what he called "fully implement" the congressionally mandated biometric identifier requirement in passports for VWP countries, the Homeland Security Committee‘s ranking Democrat, Bernie G.
