Description: Administered by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) division of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Transportation Workers Identification Credential (TWIC) is a tamper-resistant credential that contains biometric information about the holder which renders the card useless to anyone other than the rightful owner.
