In 2016, Australia announced that it would launch a face recognition service using biometrics. The original plan was that this system would be limited. The photo used was limited to those who wanted Australian nationality, and the service was available only to some government agencies. However, since then, the government has expanded its scope, and the photographs used are provided from various databases, and it has moved toward the development of a complex system that allows people with unknown identities to collate.
And in a new announcement, it turned out that the identification service using face authentication is being examined for use involving private companies. The Australian government said in this regard, “Although these were originally designed to prevent spoofing, the Home Office supported the use of document and face recognition services throughout the Australian economy to enhance the age verification process. ''
In the future, it is said that the face authentication service will be available to private companies, but it is necessary to pass the Identity Verification Service Bill 2019 in order to realize it.
