Project description
Enhancing ID verification at borders
Identity verification at European borders has long been a challenge due to the unreliable and time-consuming processes required. To improve security and increase efficiency, the EU-funded Smart-Trust project has introduced a new technological enabler for Mobile ID that drastically enhances the reliability and trust levels of identity verification. The platform offers a seamless self-service experience based on biometrics on the move, ensuring freedom of movement for citizens while safeguarding their privacy. The project addresses the needs of governments, airports, airlines and border police, and will be piloted at airports in Lisbon and Schiphol. Its agile, highly configurable, modular, open-architecture platform features several robust components, including mobile ID services and app, trust chain, workflow orchestration, and analytics and risk-assessment.
Objective
Smart-Trust introduces a new technological enabler for Mobile ID which drastically increases the reliability and trust levels of
identity verification at European borders, thus increasing the security of member states. The platform is compatible with a
seamless self-service experience based on biometrics on the move which provides freedom of movements to citizens while
ensuring their privacy safeguarded according to Privacy by Design principles.
Smart-Trust will simultaneously address the business needs of governments, airports, airlines and border police in major
pilots in the international airports of Lisbon and Schiphol. After establishing requirements sought by the various stakeholders,
and integrating the Smart-Trust platform into the airport and border control infrastructure, we will define KPIs for assessing
the business cases and design experiments to measure them.
Smart-Trust will be implemented by delivering an agile, highly configurable, modular and open architecture platform with the
following robust, versatile and scalable core components:
• Mobile ID services and app, mobile identity enrolment and verification services
• TrustChain, a blockchain-based infra-structure to assert citizen transactions in a distributed and self-regulatory fashion
• Workflow Orchestration, a workflow management component which caters for stakeholder-driven business rules
• Analytics and Risk-Assessment, an industrial-strength real time analytics platform able to deliver professional customized
monitoring dashboards as well as detecting passenger trends and anomalies.
These components will be developed as part of Vision-Box’s overarching Services Platform and hence compatible with
standard Vision-Box services such as Automated Border Control, including Advance Passenger Information Systems (APIS)
and Entry-Exit System (EES), and Happy Flow, the first 100% self-service passenger processing system allowing
passengers to go from curb to boarding by simple presenting their face.
