The American Assocation of Motor Vehicle Administrators has prepared a series of studies on security of drivers license data, and not least sharing it with law enforcement. Access to some of the docs are supposed to be limited to members but R. notes that the security is illusory, so the docs can be accessed until the hole is closed (see the last appendix for LE access to data): ----- http://www.aamva.org/IDSecurity/index.asp AAMVA determined the need for a comprehensive framework of minimum requirements with enhanced recommendations to improve the quality, reliability, uniformity and security of the driver licensing process in North America. As a result, AAMVA compiled and produced its DL/ID Security Framework: A Package of Decisions Based on Best Practices, Standards, Specifications and Recommendations to Enhance Drivers License Administration and Identification Security. This document is currently available to the AAMVA membership only. Members will be required to present their AAMVA user ID and password to access the framework. -----
