The use of biometric technology in order to make accurate identity checks as a way of control of borders to prevent terrorist attacks and illegal migration becomes more and more frequent in recent years. However, security does not always coincide with human rights. There is great discussion as far as the violation of human rights by these new technologies is concerned and the legitimacy of biometrics to collect such information. In addition, it is quentionable the effectiveness of these new technologies as illegal migrants tend to live in an illegal framework without official papers anyway and so they are difficult to be controlled.
