  Bobby Jindal rejects LA's Real ID Law
  June 27, 2014 /0 Comments/in Blog, Industry News /by IDscan.net
  The governor of Louisiana, Bobby Jindal, has vetoed the REAL ID bill passed in Louisiana.
  A couple of months ago, the Louisiana legislature adopted the REAL ID bill to ensure Louisiana's driver's licenses complied with federal regulation. By 2016, these new REAL ID compliant driver's licenses will be required for anyone who wants to enter federally-owned premises or board a plane.
  Governor Jindal stated that Louisiana had at least 18 months before they had to comply with the REAL ID regulation. In the short-term, he did not want to expose local residents to "unnecessary federal oversight" by offering REAL ID compliant driver's licenses.
  Although Louisiana has chosen not to pursue REAL ID compliant driver's licenses, our software is still able to read them. Our desktop, tablet, and mobile software solutions can read any type of ID including military and hunting/fishing licenses from the US or Canada.

  Driver's Licenses for Illegal Immigrants – Good or Bad Policy?
  June 20, 2014 /0 Comments/in Industry News /by IDscan.net
  There has been a lot of recent debate regarding whether states should provide driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. Providing them with identification would help guarantee our roads are safer by ensuring they become insured and trained drivers. However, there has been significant push back against these policies. Although providing them with driver's licenses would make our roads safer, there is debate regarding whether illegal immigrants should be able to receive a driver's license.
  In California, the "Drive CA" program has been labeled as overly stringent. For this program to work, regulators agree that there must be easy access to document requirements and applicant's privacy must be protected. This poses another potential problem of discrimination when illegal immigrants apply for a driver's license.
  Currently, similar bills for illegal immigrants to get driver's licenses are trying to be based all across the US. Despite the heavy support for them, they have faced significant political deadlock.
  What do you think about giving illegal immigrants driver's licenses? Let us know if the comments section below.

  A new ID scam is starting to become popular around the country that involves the use of fake IDs.
  In the most recent instance, two perpetrators used fake IDs to open multiple cell phone accounts at Radio Shack. They would upgrade their phone services, buy a new iPhone for about $100, and afterwards add an additional phone line to get a second iPhone. They would then turn around and sell these phones for $500 online.
  Police reported that one of the suspects had 13 fake IDs. The entire scam led to $5,400 in fraud.
  Our systems are designed to detect fake IDs by reading the PDF417 barcode found on the back of any type of driver's license, military ID, or other state-issued ID. Our enterprise solutions allow you to quickly integrate ID scanning and fake ID detection into any type of POS, desktop, or software system.
