E-Passports Coming In Midst of Security Concerns
They’re sleek, inviting, and to illegal-activity doers, potentially intimidating.
The new electronic passports are set to make their grand debut this week, despite news reports that they are hackable.
Not all newly-issued passports will be RFID-enabled, since mass production has been held up by the ongoing legal dispute over the technology, according to news reports. The first passports to be issued will be those produced during the pilot run of the project, but the full roll-out should be completed in about a year. .
