New US–Chile Pact Targets Criminal Migration With Biometric Technology

The United States and Chile signed a new Biometric Identification Transnational Migration Alert Program (BITMAP) letter of intent on July 30, which U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem said is a continuation of crucial information-sharing between the two nations.

“Data sharing benefits everyone – except bad actors who wish to do us and our people harm,” Noem said in a statement. “Today, we kick-started a Biometric Identification Transnational Migration Alert Program (BITMAP) to help both nations better track criminals, terrorists, other dangerous individuals who try to cross our borders and do us harm.”
