Department of Defense February 17, 2015 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of the Army proposes to add a new system of records, A0025-2 PMG (DFBA) DoD, entitled ``Defense Biometric Identification Records System'' to facilitate biometric identification (i.e., automated identity verification of individuals by reference to their measurable physiological and/or behavioral characteristics) of U.S. persons who seek access to DoD property, installations, or information; U.S. persons who pose a threat to DoD personnel, assets or missions, or to national security; U.S. persons who are captured, detained, or otherwise encountered by DoD forces during military operations; and U.S. persons for whom DoD has the responsibility to recover or account during or as a result of DoD operations. Information is collected to support DoD military missions, detainee affairs, personnel recovery, force protection, antiterrorism, special operations, stability operations, homeland defense, counterintelligence, and intelligence efforts around the world.
