Different Types of Applications • Homeland Security / Law Enforcement • Physical Access Control • Time & Attendance • PC / Network Security • Transactional Authentication • Wireless Device Security • …
Market Drivers • Changing Priorities Post-September 11, 2001 • Increased Public Awareness • Government Projects on the Rise • Increased Usage of Biometrics along with Smart cards and/or RFID • Large Opportunities from Travel & Transportation Projects • International Biometric Standards Effort & co-operation
Industry Challenges • Large Dependence on Government Clients Brings in Uncertainty • Selecting and Developing Strategic Partners and Alliances is Critical to Success • Need for Continuous Technical Advancement Requires High Investments • High Cost of Biometrics Relative to Other Solutions • Privacy Concerns Could Affect Biometric Deployment • Customer Confusion Delay Projects • Lack of Standards for some Applications
The Global ContextWhere are the Opportunitiesregarding E-passport? • Contrary to the commonly quoted figure of 40 countries, almost 50 States are now known to be upgrading their passports to include contactless chips and biometric information over the next two years. • The list of countries to have made the switch is as follows: Australia Belgium Denmark Germany Japan New Zealand Norway Sweden Thailand UK Finland Hungary Greece Luxembourg United States

What is an E-Passport? • An Electronic Passport is the same as a traditional passport with the addition of a smallRFID chip embedded in the cover. The chip will store: • The same data visually displayed on the data page of the passport, • A biometric identifier in the form of a digital image of the passport photograph, which will facilitate the use of face recognition technology at ports-of-entry, • Another biometric identifier in the form a finger print or iris image, • The unique RFID chip identification number,
European Regulations & Perspectives • E.U. made the decision in February 2005 to implement the E-Passports based on ICAO standards • 18 months later (August 2006) it will become mandatory for 25 member countries, containing face picture as biometric data • After another 18 months (Feb.2008) additional fingerprint data will become mandatory • Basic Access Control recommandation will be the rule for data confidentiality • Fingerprint biometrics are preferred, versus iris biometrics which will be optional (Germany)
What is mandatory for an e-passport? The data page must include: • Identification data • Printed visual data : the MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) printed on the document using OCR-B font (fully defined in the standard ICAO9303) P<UTOTHOMAS<<PATRICIA<ELISABETH<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< A235711<3UTO7806278F1002207<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<00 The chip must include: • Identification data (same as printed) stored in a specific file (defined in the standard ICAO 9303) • The encoded portrait with biometric elements such as gender, eye color, hair color, expression, … • Security elements preventing the creation of false identity (Passive Authentication)
What is optional? • Other biometric data: fingerprints or iris (Feb. 2008) • Other identification data: signature • Additional personal details: other names, address, profession, title, ….. • Other security elements to prevent from : • create a clone (Active Authentication) • ensure confidentiality of identity (Basic Access Control) • give special rights to countries to access biometric information (Extended Access Control)
Psion Teklogix Position & Strategy
PARTNERS ID Secure market: The VALUE CHAINFrom Core Technology toTotal Identification Solution
Mobile E-passport reader: Importance for mobile devicescapable to read E-passports • Border control and national ID control are mobile in many cases • No need for a direct, physical connection to a central system • Ability to capture samples anywhere (Finger Print, Face Pictures) • Ability to have a database in the device itself • address a greater breadth of issues in existing secure ID document applications
Mobile E-passport reader:The Real Challenges are Technological • Flexibility & Ergonomy for a device which have to integrate: RFID + MRZ + Finger Print + wireless communications • Optical Character Recognition for MRZ capture (reliability /quickness performance comparisons between simple imager and real OCR modules technology) • Integrated RFID reader (ICAO inter-operability issues regarding RFID antenna design and performance) • Wireless Communication interface (data security issues for centralized and decentralized data bases) • Device memory capacity and ability to have a database in the device itself (list of researched criminals for instance)
