A study aiming to identify users’ distress and the knowledge gap of the biometric passport such as disclosure of personal data, improper data transmission, data abuse, as well as counterfeit and brute-force attack, is also likely to be a prerequisite for the development of a strategy to support the acceptance of such a ubiquitous novelty. Individuals’ feelings and opinions may increase the risk of refusal and leads to biometrics application disappointment.

Understanding these users concerns as well as threats and attacks of technology is important. One such study found that most of the users feel worried, doubtful, or disturbance towards this technology since they regard it as a means for likely encroachments into their privacy. This is because a limited number of studies have explained biometric technology from the user concerns and acceptance perspective. However, users’ concerns and fears, for example on disclosure of personal data and data abuse (misuse), remains a big research question. 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.ĭespite the motivating progress in acquiring infrastructure for allowing the issuance of a biometric passport, this initiative can help facilitate faster clearance at the immigration border, guard against multiple passport issuance as well as protect against identity theft. It is important for policymakers and security expertise to understand that biometric technologies evoke fears of privacy and public liberties infringements. Threats and attacks on the technology such as counterfeit and brute-force were identified. Relevance knowledge of preferred technology such as the personal experience of the technology, data privacy awareness and perceived usefulness was confirmed. Factors impacting fear of technology like disclosure of personal data, improper data transmission, and data abuse were determined.

We used a mixed approach to compute and articulate the results. 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. 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. The increase in terrorism and identity fraud has forced governments worldwide to make a combined effort to enhance the security of national borders.
