ID Card Projects Large Scale ID Projects Based on Biometrics (Specifically Fingerprint) Speaker: Hugues Gervais, VP, Business Development
Introduction Subject: Large scale ID projects based on Biometrics (specifically Fingerprint) • Technologies involved • Major projects • Benefits and Risks involved • Conclusion
A. Technologies Large scale ID projects involve the following technologies: • Biometrics (Fingerprint) • Cards • Biometrics Database (AFIS) • Face Database
Biometrics • Fingerprint • Face geometry • Retinal scan & Iris (eyes) • Others
Cards • Plastic Cards • Memory Cards • Smart Cards
Card Materials • PVC : PolyVinylChloride • Cheaper (0.10$) • Less durable (< 3 years) • PETF : Polyester film • Expensive (0.25$) • More durable (5 to 10 years) • PC : PolyCarbonate • More expensive (1.00$) • More durable (> 10 years) • Used in Hong Kong, Macao and Finland National ID cards project • Note: CAC card is made of 40% PET and 60% PVC
Biometrics Template Storage • 2D bar code • Smart Card • Optical Card
Smart Card Type • Contact • ISO-7816 • 32 Kbytes to 64 Kbytes • Cryptographic capabilities (digital signature) • Contactless • 1 Kbytes to 4 Kbytes • Many standards
Contactless Smart Card • MIFARE ISO-14443 type A • ISO-14443 type B • ISO-15693 Vicinity • Hua Hong (China) • Legic • iClass (HID)
Smart Card O/S Multi-Applications require an Operating System on the card to handle and control all the applications • Java • Multos • Proprietary
AFIS AFIS: Automated Fingerprint Identification System • Identification : one-to-many • Can locate duplicates • Storage of full size fingerprint images and allows template format changes • Suppliers: 123ID, Biokey, Cogent, Dermalog, Nec, Printrak, Sagem
Facial Database • Identification : one-to-many • Can locate duplicates • Storage of full size facial pictures • Suppliers: Identix (Visionics), Viisage, others
Fingerprint Template • Minutiae Base • Cannot recreate a fingerprint image from the template • Standard for Law Enforcement for 100 years • Pattern Base • More Precise (better FAR) • But a fingerprint image can be recreated from the template
B. Government Projects • Large Scale Deployment • Citizen • National ID • Government Employees • Military • Transportation
Government Applications Passport / VISA Citizen ID andDriver’s License Election Card Social Security Card Mass Transportation Healthcare Card
Government Applications Airports Seaports Nuclear & other Power Plants Military ID
Citizen ID Projects France Morocco USA Hong Kong Mexico UAE Malaysia Brazil
Brunei • Multi-Application Citizen card: • 0.3 millions cards issued • Smart card • Contact chip with 8 Kbytes • Digital certificates on the cards • 2 Fingerprint templates and photo ID stored in the card • Applications: Citizen ID
Malaysia • Government Multi-Purpose Card (GMPC): • Issued to every citizen over age 12 • 19 million cards expected by 2008 • Smart card • Contact chip with 32 Kbytes • Digital certificates on the cards • Fingerprint thumbprint and photo ID stored into the card • Applications: Citizen ID, Driver’s license and passport
Hong Kong • National ID Card: • Issued to every citizen over age 11 • 7 million cards expected by 2007 • Multos smart card • Contact chip with 32 Kbytes • Digital certificates on the cards • 2 Fingerprints templates and photo ID stored into the card • Applications: Citizen ID • Optional Applications: Driver’s license and e-purse
Macau • National ID Card: • 0.5 million cards expected by 2007 • Java card • Contact chip with 32 Kbytes • Digital certificates on the cards • Fingerprint stored into the card • Applications: Citizen ID, Driver’s license and more
China • National ID Card: • Not started yet (has been delayed for years) • Will be issued to every citizen older than 16 years • Around 800 million cards expected • Might issue 70 million cards in 2004 ! • Controlled by the Ministry of Public Security (MPS) • Application: ID only • Will use 4 Kbytes contactless • MIFARE, ISO-14443 type B or Hua Hong
ICAO • International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) • May 28th 2003, adopted the integration of biometric identification information on Passports and Machine Readable Travel Documents (MRTD) • Facial recognition was selected as prime biometrics • Fingerprints and eyes can also be integrated (option) • They selected high-capacity, contactless integrated circuit (IC) chips to store identification information • 188 Member States with more than 700 million MRTD (Passport, Visa, Identity Card)
TWIC • Transportation Worker Identification Card (TWIC) • Controlled by Department of Homeland Security • Will be issued to 15 million transportation workers • US Transportation facilities:429 airports & 361 seaports • Technology evaluations are in process
USVISIT • USVISIT : US Visitor Immigration Status Indication Technology System • Control by the U.S. Homeland Security Agency • By October 2004, Visa Waiver (26 nations) Countries need to begin issuing passports carrying biometric data • Application: Border crossing (Visa) • Will incorporate features of the DoD CAC Card • Java Card • Three digital certificates • 2 chips • Contact chip of 64 Kbytes • Contactless (ISO-14443) chip for building access
DoD • US Department of Defense (DoD) • Called the Common Access Card (CAC) • Almost 2 million cards issued out of 4 million • Java Card with Contact chip, 32 Kbytes • Three digital certificates • Will include fingerprint template (Identix) • Plan to: • Expand memory to 64 Kbytes • Add contactless chip (ISO-14443)
Middle-East • Oman (1.2 million cards) • Index fingerprint & photo • Citizens and residents 15 and over • Applications: Passport, Driver’s license, Medical data • Plan to add digital certificates • UAE: United Arab Emirate • Fingerprint stored on a 32 Kbytes Java Smart Card • Citizens and residents 15 and over • Applications: Passport, Driver’s license, Health & Banking • Saudi Arabia • Contract awarded soon • Fingerprint stored on a 32 Kbytes Multos Smart Card
Others • Spain: Social Security Card with biometrics and smart card chip • Netherlands: Biometrics into passport by 2004 • U.K. Asylum Seekers Card: Fingerprint and photo on a smart card chip • Mexico: Voter Registration
C. Benefits • Improve National Security • Minimize paying services for non-residents
Risks • Large infrastructure and expensive • Influenced by Politics and Legislation • User acceptance and Privacy Law concerns • Case of Multi-Applications, creates power struggle between Government Agencies
Conclusion • But budgets are there • Security threats are here • New legislations are in place • These large scale projects generate momentum for other projects
