A biometric sensor may be coupled to a portable communications device, such as a cellular telephone. The biometric sensor may be configured to acquire one or more measurements of biological characteristics of an individual. One or more of the measurements may relate to internal, sub-epidermal characteristics of the individual, such as non-volitional processes occurring within the individual, sub-epidermal structures within the individual, or the like. A biometric marker may be derived from one or more of the measurements. The portable communications device may be activated responsive to deriving the biometric marker. The activation may include transmitting the measurements and/or biometric markers derived therefrom to a receiver using the portable communications device.

The method of claim 1, further comprising: deriving a biometric marker from the first sub-epidermal characteristic; andtransmitting, to the monitoring service executing on the server device, the biometric marker. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the biometric marker, the first sub-epidermal characteristic, and the second sub-epidermal characteristic are encrypted for transmission over a network. 4. The method of claim 2, further comprising receiving, from the monitoring service executing on the server device, instructions responsive to the monitoring service executing on the server device monitoring the second sub-epidermal characteristic. 5. The method of claim 4, further comprising receiving, from the monitoring service executing on the server device, second alert in responsive to the monitoring service executing on the server device monitoring the second sub-epidermal characteristic. 6. The method of claim 5, further comprising emitting the second alert an audio alert in response to receiving the alert from the monitoring service executing on the server device. 7. The method of claim 5, further comprising activating a vibrator in response to receiving the second alert from the monitoring service executing on the server device. 8. The method of claim 2, further comprising: identifying using the biometric marker, information associated with the individual; andmonitoring the individual using the biometric marker. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein the information associated with the individual comprises an individual profile stored on a computer-readable storage medium, the individual profile comprising one more individual profile measurements corresponding to sub-epidermal structure measurements previously taken for the individual. 10. The method of claim 9, further comprising authenticating, using the biometric marker, the second sub-epidermal characteristic. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein: the information associated with the individual comprises a stored biometric marker, andauthenticating the second sub-epidermal characteristic comprises comparing the biometric marker to the stored biometric marker. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein: the information describing the individual comprises a biometric profile of the individual, andauthenticating the second sub-epidermal characteristic further comprises comparing the biometric marker to the biometric profile. 13. The method of claim 9, further comprising recording the second sub-epidermal characteristic into the individual profile. 14. The method of claim 9, further comprising: comparing the second sub-epidermal characteristic to one or more thresholds defined in the individual profile; andtransmitting, to a device associated with a health care provider, a third alert when the second sub-epidermal characteristic diverges from the one or more thresholds. 15. The method of claim 1, further comprising: transmitting, using the energy emitter, a third energy signal into a second sub-epidermal structure of the individual,receiving, using the energy sensor, from the second sub-epidermal structure of the individual, a fourth energy signal; anddetermining, using the fourth energy signal, the second sub-epidermal characteristic of the individual. 16. The method of claim 1, wherein the biometric sensor is integrated into a cellular telephone, a personal digital assistant, a laptop computer, or a media player. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein the first sub-epidermal characteristic or the second sub-epidermal characteristic corresponds to a non-volitional process occurring within the individual. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the first sub-epidermal characteristic or the second sub-epidermal characteristic is a hemodynamic waveform. 19. The method of claim 17, wherein the first sub-epidermal characteristic or the second sub-epidermal characteristic is a histological structure within the individual. 20. The method of claim 1, wherein the first sub-epidermal characteristic or the second sub-epidermal characteristic is a heartbeat waveform. 21. A system comprising: a portable device comprising: an biometric sensor, the biometric sensor comprising: an energy emitter to transmit, into a sub-epidermal structure of an individual, a first energy signal towards the individual;an energy receiver to detect, from the sub-epidermal structure of the individual, a second energy signal, anda processing device, coupled to the biometric sensor, the processing device is to: determine a first sub-epidermal characteristic of the individual using the second energy signal;determine a biometric marker of the individual using the first sub-epidermal characteristic;transmit, to a monitoring service executing on a server device, the biometric marker;receive, from the monitoring service executing on the server device, a request for a biometric characteristic;transmit, to the monitoring service executing on the server device, the biometric characteristic of the individual;receive, from the monitoring service executing on the server device, a challenge message requesting a measurement of a second sub-epidermal characteristic of the individual;measure, using the biometric sensor, the sub-epidermal structure of the individual to obtain the second sub-epidermal characteristic of the individual;transmit, to the monitoring service executing on the server device, the second sub-epidermal characteristic for the monitoring service executing on the server device to compare the second sub-epidermal characteristic to a biometric profile of the individual; andreceiving, at a portable electronic device, a first alert from the monitoring service executing on the server device when the second sub-epidermal characteristic diverges from a threshold defined in a profile for the individual, the profile comprising one more profile measurements corresponding to sub-epidermal measurements previously taken for the individual. 22. The system of claim 21, further comprising a communications device to transmit, to the monitoring service executing on the server device, a monitoring packet in responsive to the processing device deriving the biometric marker. 23.
