World DLA president Larry Codenys said, "We're here to verify identity authentication, to make sure that the risk to people is reduced, and to look at terrorism reduction, as well as come up with a cost-beneficial solution to make sure everybody's risk is reduced."
So how do they do that?
They've created an extensive information database stored in the Main Place tower.
Codenys said, "It instantaneously, within two seconds, gives them back a reading that the identity they were given matches what's in the databases internationally."
But if a thief or a terrorist is trying to pose as someone else, it throws up a red flag.
Codenys said, "If somebody is trying to fake somebody else's ID, and it goes into the system, by adding the multiple levels of information, chances are they won't know it all, and it'll come back as an invalid match."
