1. A system for enrolling a user for control of entry to a venue, concert, festival, or event, the system comprising:
a computer configured to execute an application program including an authentication application, wherein the application program, when executed, is configured to:
receive a user attribute;
using the authentication application, create an anonymous client reference (ACR) associated with the user attribute;
receive a biometric template from a source remote to the authentication application, wherein the biometric template has been determined from an input of a biometric; and
create an association between the biometric template and the newly-created ACR, such that on dependence on the bound ACR and biometric template, subsequent single-factor authentication is enabled to control entry to the venue, concert, festival, or event in dependence on the created association,
wherein the application program creates the association between the biometric template and the ACR without requiring a direct link between the user attribute and the biometric template.
