It states clearly that the industry generated a total of US$ 2.3 trillion in 2016. More than a hundred million tourism jobs were also contributed by the industry. This is what makes the industry, fertile ground for biometrics implementation. That is because biometrics helps ease travel processes. Tis improves customer satisfaction, but also does good for the bottom line, as things move quicker. Mobile interfaces and devices help out in the process. Cryptography is used to ensure the maximum security.
