36. A removable communication card, comprising:
-
an identification module operable to store identification data for users in a network, the identification data having data for authentication of the users in the network; a measurement device operable to capture a first and a second biometric feature of one user, the first biometric feature being different from the second biometric feature; and an analysis module having a processor unit, the analysis module being operable to attempt verification of a match between the first and the second biometric features of the one user and the stored identification data to authenticate the one user, wherein; the identification data comprises code for initialization of the identification data; the measurement device captures the first biometric feature of the one user; in a case where the analysis module verifies a match between the first biometric feature and the stored identification data, the one user is authenticated; and in a case where the analysis module cannot verify a match between the first biometric feature and the stored identification data, the measurement device captures the second biometric feature of the one user and the analysis module verifies a match for the second biometric feature with the identification data to authenticate the one user. - View Dependent Claims (37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49)

50. A method, the method comprising:
in a removable communication card; identifying one user; capturing a first biometric feature of the one user; comparing the first biometric feature of the one user with stored biometric identification data for the one user; authenticating the one user upon a successful matching of the captured first biometric feature of the one user with first stored biometric information data; capturing a second biometric feature of the one user upon an unsuccessful matching of the captured first biometric feature of the one user with the first stored biometric information data, the second biometric feature being different from the captured first biometric feature; and comparing the second biometric feature of the one user with second stored biometric identification data. - View Dependent Claims (51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63)
