SMART ID CARDS
The Pentagon has unveiled its new identification card equipped
with a computer chip that will give its owner access to computer
systems and secure buildings, and ultimately will serve as a
debit card for soldiers.
The 32K-chip will have the power to store identification
information like medical and dental information and personal
benefits.
But its most important function may be its role in securing
Defense Department computers. Users will insert their cards into
"card readers" attached to their desktop computers, provide a
pass code and then be allowed onto DOD's computer network. Three
failed attempts to sign on will deactivate the card, requiring a
new one to be issued.
Defense officials concede it's an imperfect system but point out
it is an improvement over the current "password-only" protection
now offered on defense networks.
The cards will cost around $8 each, with the Defense Department
issuing about 4 million of them to all active duty, Guard and
Reserve service members, civilian employees and selected
contractors, and 1 million more a year thereafter. The cards are
expected to last about three years each.
