Abstract
A method for facilitating supply of a requested service, being supplied after successful identity authentication, is provided. The method includes utilizing a network switch to link a service provider, which offers the requested service, to a biometric data archive, which performs verification of received biometric data to authenticate identity. The method also includes receiving, in the network switch, a result of the biometric data verification from the biometric data archive. The method further includes directing the result to the service provider for the service provider to determine supply of the requested service based on the result.
