SIA Defends Use of Key Technologies in N.H., Okla.
The Security Industry Association (SIA) recently took action to defend the use of electronic security technologies in two states.
The New Hampshire legislature is considering a bill (H.B. 244) that would ban most public and private uses of biometrics in the state. If enacted, SIA CEO Richard Chace warned in a letter to Rep. Neal Kurk, R-District 7, the bill's sponsor, the legislation would "prevent the development of innovative biometrics-based identity management initiatives by businesses, schools, colleges, hospitals and government agencies."
