    • Abstract:
      This article explains why technology alone is not enough to foil terrorists in the United States. An example to illustrate this premise is the failure to fully implement the biometric features of passports in various countries. Applying high technology is a complicated process that requires extensive cooperation of government agencies involved in implementing high technology for security purposes. All the political blather about using technology to ensure security according to observers. However, it is worth noting that there is evidence that once these biometric passports are in place, terrorists can always come up with various ways to thwart the systems. Instead, the government must learn how to use the technology it has together with common sense.
