DoD ABIS is a system that collects, stores, matches, and shares biometric data (such as fingerprints, palm prints, iris scans, and facial scans) from persons of interest globally. It is used to identify and verify potential threats to national security and support military operations. It provides 24/7 operational support and uses specialized software and biometric examiners for manual matching12.

Biometrics matching capabilities allow the Warfighter to accurately identify, target, deny access, and/or detain known or suspected adversaries around the globe.  To support this mission, DoD ABIS serves as the authoritative repository for biometrics data collected from known and suspected terrorists and persons of interest.   It is used by all the Services, Geographic Combatant Commands, Special Operations forces, and the Intelligence Community.  The current DoD ABIS v1.3 system matches, stores, and shares four biometric modalities: fingerprint, facial images, palm-print, and iris patterns. The next generation DoD ABIS v2.0 will add the voice modality.  The system enables force protection, intelligence, physical and logical access control, identity management, and detection and interception operations. It features integrated commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) and Government-off-the-shelf (GOTS) products, using open architecture to minimize development and speed deployment.  DoD ABIS interfaces with numerous DoD and interagency biometrics systems, including Department of Justice (DoJ), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and Department of State (DoS).
