SDW/DocExJoint Session: EMERGING SECURITY DOCUMENT FEATURES


14:10 SESSION CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION

Carolyn Dutot, Document Specialist, Canada Border Services Agency, Canada


14:15 A new generation of security features utilizing plasmonic transmission

  • A current trend in banknotes and in ID documents is to create a “document window” where an optical security feature is placed. But so far, most of these features either work by reflection or show a different image by viewing it from one side or the other of the window;
  • A recent area in optic research, Plasmons, opens opportunities to create a new range of security features fully adapted to transmissive windows in documents;
  • In this presentation, learn about first-generation security features using Plasmon technologies and how they demonstrate dramatic optical effects.

Hugues Souparis, President of Hologram. Industries, France


14:40 Next-generation security features for identity documents

  • This presentation discusses emerging trends and latest developments in the design of secure travel and identity documents;
  • Next-generation card- and personalization-linked security features are presented, with a particular focus on transparent window elements.

Ivo Schönenberger, Product Manager, Trüb AG, Switzerland


15:05 Combining advanced optical technologies to remain ahead of the counterfeiter

  • The use of optical technologies as anti-counterfeit security has seen a substantial evolution over the past 25 years;
  • In the face of increasing efforts to counterfeit existing OVD devices, there is an emerging trend to integrate multiple optical effect technologies within the same security image in order to generate unique visual features that are easy to see, understand and authenticate.
  • This presentation will summarise some of the key optical technologies and discuss the barriers to full integration.

Paul Dunn, Director of Optical Technology, OpSec Security, UK

SECURE PRODUCTION AND ISSUANCE TECHNIQUES


SESSION CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION

Mario Stoltz, Product Manager, NXP Semiconductors, Germany


16:15 Making the case for distributed secure ID issuance – Why government ID programs around the world are making the switch from centralized credential production to high-cycle distributed card issuance.

  • In the past, ‘distributed’ models were viewed as less secure than centralized models. Today, the equipment, technology and know-how has progressed to the point where the physical and operational security of distributed models offer the same levels of security as in centralized production.
  • In this presentation our speaker will share highlights of a recent survey on how current governments and national organizations are implementing distributed secure ID issuance models including specific successes, challenges and concerns encountered in the process.
  • The speaker will also employ real-life case studies to exemplify this trend including, Kenya where citizens in remote, rural areas would face economic hardship in their effort to travel to and enroll in centralized ID programs without a distributed issuance model.

Nils Wahlander, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Secure Issuance, HID Global, USA


16:40 One size fits all? Not really! New trends in e-Document management

  • Many countries around the world are embracing new democracies, which bring with them the deployment of massive enrolment processes aimed at allowing citizens to express their choice.
  • Geographic dispersions of populations and enrolment conditions require the enroment stations form factor to be flexible.
  • In this presentation, learn how many countries are redesigning the enrolment
    process and closing the loop in the card issuance cycle and discover tha different
    strategies must be considered; “One sizes doesn’t fit all”!

Ian Stamatakis-Brown, UK Country Manager, Vision-Box, UK


17:05 Connected Authentication

  • The digital revolution of the past decade has redefined how we interact with products and supply chains. In a globalised economy authenticity of a product, a passport, even a currency is more critical than ever.
  • Whilst secure documents may superficially lag “behind the curve” there are significant digital structures already in place across the globe and with increased regulation and scrutiny of travel documents, revenue stamps and currency management a radical re-definition of the industry lies ahead.
  • Advances in detector technology, “track and trace” solutions as well as material science demand a connected approach to authentication from supply chain to user/consumer.
  • There will also be a small focus on the cyber threats– hackers, sniffers, malware etc.

Julian Payne, Line of Business Director, Solutions, De La Rue, UK

09:10 SESSION CHAIRMAN’S INTRODUCTION

David Buckley, President and CEO, Cross Match Technologies, USA


09:15 KEYNOTE PRESENTATION:

Research initiatives (and results) against document and identity fraud at the border

This keynote presentation discusses research initiatives (and results) carried out by the Research and Development Unit of Frontex in close cooperation with European Member States and researchers from academia and industry. The research addresses the following challenges:

  • The iceberg – Document and identity fraud seem to be a growing concern; however, the extent and gravity of the phenomenon are not fully captured, since detection rates may not be representative of the reality of the threat;
  • How can we harmonize detection methods and equipment used in the first line?
  • How can we better exploit the synergies between humans and machines in order to improve the first-line process?

Edgar Beugels, Head of Research and Development Unit, Frontex, Poland


09:45 KEYNOTE PRESENTATION:

Reducing identity fraud through industry/government co-operation

  • Quantifying the extent of identity fraud;
  • Creating a business case for dealing with such fraud;
  • Discovering a potential solution through cooperation.

Lieutenant-Colonel Rob Koster, Head, Expertise Centre Identity Fraud and Documents, Royal Netherlands Marechaussee, Ministry of Defence, The Netherlands


10:10 Digital Seal – Strong protection for non-electronic documents

  • While modern passports and many national ID cards are electronically enabled, many travel and identity documents, such as breeder documents, are not equipped with integrated circuits;
  • In order to provide strong protection for such documents, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) and the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) in Germany, together with secunet Security Networks have developed the Digital Seal – a cryptographic protection mechanism which utilizes bar codes for storage of the verification data and can thus be verified by optical reading.
  • BSI has recently issued a technical guideline for the digital seal giving comprehensive guidance for implementation as well as specifying encoding formats. Furthermore, a prototype application has been developed generating digital seals for the protection of EU visa that allows verification of the facial image, the MRZ and (optionally) fingerprints.

Michael Schwaiger, Consultant, Software Development, Electronic Identities, Public Sector, secunet Security Networks, Germany


10:40 EU project Newp@ssWorking towards future ePP evolution

  • New EU research project into 4th generation ePassport technology;

11:05 QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSION


11:15 COFFEE & TEA and EXHIBITION VIEWING, sponsored by 3M


11:45 DocEx SEMINARIt’s the same chemistry, just applied differently!

A seminar looking at commercially available every-day products that can be manipulated from their intended purpose, into products used to counterfeit, in part, or in whole, a security document. The seminar will also look at how ‘genuine’ security features or products, procured through legitimate commercial means, are also being used in the counterfeiting of documents.

As secure documents get more complex, commercially available products may become more attractive to counterfeiters to deceive the document examiner. We will take a look at some of the products available, and how we as security document designers, manufacturers and examiners can make security features more secure, yet inherently recognisable to the end user.

Led by: Paul Alty, FSSoc Dip, Immigration Officer, Specialist Document Examiner, National Document Fraud Unit (NDFU), UK

  • An overview of how GlobalPlatform Specifications, including the privacy framework, align with relevant ISO standards.

Kevin Gillick, Executive Director, GlobalPlatform, UK


14:20 NFC opportunity for card authentication and citizen assessment

  • This paper will discuss recent trends in eID deployment, including the associated life-cycle issues. We will debate the stakeholder benefits and the approaches to manage security and privacy in order to increase adoption rates and citizen acceptance.
  • Issuers are always faced with a range of constraints when considering deployment of en eID program, with a major issue being that of the cost and effectiveness of the infrastructure needed to authenticate the eID at point of use.
  • In consideration of this authentication constraint, we will present and discuss the opportunity to adopt commonly available mobile phone and NFC technology as one of the tools that can be used to conveniently and securely verify an eID credential.
  • The key benefits of considering NFC tools are: mobility, accessibility, security, citizen control, and law enforcement agency endorsement.

Uwe Ludwig, CEO of International Business, American Banknote Corporation, USA


14:45 Secure authentication with biometrically encrypted passwords

  • BioPACE is a highly secure communication protocol for ID documents, based on the Password Authenticated Connection Establishment (PACE) protocol.
  • PACE is already implemented in the new German ID cards and specified for next-generation e-passports as recommended by ICAO from December 2014. It supports using weak alphanumeric passwords to set up a highly protected communication channel.
  • BioPACE goes one step further: in addition to alphanumeric characters, biometric features such as fingerprints, iris, and veins serve as the input and are matched on the card with several clear advantages.

Bernhard Deufel, Senior Business Advisor Passports, Giesecke & Devrient, Germany


15:10 Enabling governments to go multi-applicationTechnology trend towards eDocuments with Flash memory

  • Government ID documents are well established all around the world but applications now demand more than single static functions;
  • This requirement profile has been seen in the products of commercial payment providers but must be combined with the highest security and lifetime challenges of government projects;
  • This speech investigates the typical secure value chain of government documents and discusses how the change from ROM to Flash may open up new options without compromising on security and reliability.

Tom Kinneging, Senior Expert, Standardization, Morpho, France


13:45 New security and performance challenges for the next generation ePassport

  • Since their initial introduction in late 2004, more than 100 countries worldwide have been deploying electronic passports. The latest statistics from ICAO show almost 500 million electronic passports in circulation.
  • The next interesting moves are the emergence of Automatic Border Control and SAC migration recommended by ICAO and mandated by EU from
    December 2014 onwards.
  • This presentation will explain some of the new challenging requirements from both security and performance perspectives and discusses the status of the market. It highlights requirements and their effect on underlying hardware and software.

Nicolas Prawitz, Secure Identity Marketing Manager, Business Unit Identification, NXP, France


14:00 New ICAO strategyICAO PKD

  • Realizing that the reliable, fast and cost-effective identification of travellers will be a major challenge in the coming years, ICAO’s MRTD Program is going to shift its work priorities. This new direction will lead to a new MRTD Strategy which will be discussed at the ICAO Council in March 2013;
  • This presentation will give an overview of the outcome of the Council deliberations and the future work program;
  • The ICAO Public Key Directory (PKD) will certainly be a part of this strategy. 35 issuing authorities have already recognized the benefits and have joined the PKD.
