Israel adopting Urine Biometric Technology (ID-P)

New Biometric technology to protect Privacy Exposure

P-border - The Interior Minister of Israel Mr. Meir Shitrit has decided that
Fingerprints, and Face recantation are not too invasive for privacy and are anyway
stimulating protests and come under attack by civil libertarians argue that biometrics will
lead to an even deeper erosion of personal privacy in both the real world and cyber-space.
The Interior Minister has decided to adopt a new authentication method that he believes
might not arouse too much antagonism, a new biometrics authentication technique has
been adopted for this purpose, identifying or verifying the identity of a person, based on
his Urine (also known as “ID-P”). The Urine samples is expecting to be collected into
central biometric database containers and some of it will be analyzed and be transplanted
or dripped on every Passport, license deriver and national card ID in Israel. The interior
minister Mr. Shitrit will be the first to own a new ID-P Passport. The border’s officials
in Israel started to train the Border Protection Officers to collect analyze and authenticate
the ID-P Passport’s holders, validating or figuring out the identity of the passengers via
their unique Urine DNA Identifiers and in addition to analyzing the sample for the full
range of prohibited substances. In some cases, a fewer number of tests may be needed to
detect doping. It should be noted that the measurements of values for the Bio-Passport
(haemoglobin, free plasma haemoglobin, reticulocytes, stimulation index, haematocrit)
do not present any particular technical difficulties. The air fields authority allocated
some areas in the Ben-Gurion airport terminal for the new Biometric Collection Stations
(P-borders). The Border Protection Officers will be trained to detect 100 percent of the
foreign passengers’, ID-P biological passports and urine screening. The first step will be
the completion of the pilot program that required
international visitors to provide Urine Biometrically
check-out at the airport.

The ID-P program provides biometrics identity

management services to entities throughout the Israeli
government. Most international visitors applying to enter
the country experience ID-P collection procedures —
Urine ID collection and ID-P passport analysis.

The Authentication Process:

1. Visitors’ biometrics is collected and checked against a database of known
criminals and suspected terrorists.

 2. When the visitor arrives at the port of entry, the Border Protection Officer uses
the same biometrics – Urine sample to
verify the person at the port is the same
person who received the visa.

3. What’s new under ID-P process is that

the Border Protection Officer now uses
the Urine pot to capture your discharge.

4. You first put your ureter into edge of a

pot then you piss on the scanner.

5. The officer takes your sample to analyze.

6. These procedures add only seconds to the

overall processing time.

Why do we collect this information?

1. The biographic and biometric data are used to match your identity against the data
captured by the Ministry of interior at the time the visa was issued to ensure that
you are the same person who received the visa. In addition, your digital Urine ID
that was taken at the visa-issuing point is displayed to the Border Protection
Officer for visual comparison and
confirmation.
2. Using all these tools, the Border Protection
Officer will then either admit you or conduct
additional inquiries based on the verification
results. These procedures reduce fraud,
identity theft, and the risk that terrorists and
criminals will enter to Israel undetected or
by using stolen or fraudulent documents.
