Government
Many national and local authorities or international bodies are confronted, at some time or another, with the need to provide a reliable and verifiable means of identification and authentication for their citizens. The reasons can vary from country to country: fighting identity fraud, border control and immigration flows, verification of entitlement to (e-) government services or benefits, crime prevention, anti-terrorism, organisation of elections… Proper identification of citizens becomes a central issue when faced with the need to issue secure identity documents such as National ID cards, passports, Health cards, voters’ cards, drivers’ licenses, turning an e-government strategy into reality, organising fair and transparent elections or improving the customer satisfaction of any government service. Unique and unambiguous identification of citizens and residents is a corner stone of an efficient public administration. Anywhere a project requires highly secured authentication and digital signature systems, Zetes and its specialised divisions - Zetes CardS (highly-secured card production and personalisation facilities) and Zetes PASS (Personal Authentication and Security Services) - can provide global solutions, from registration/enrolment and AFIS systems (Automated Fingerprint Identification System), to document issuing and verification. Zetes’ proven solutions can include hardware, software and services, and are based on smart cards and RFID tags, combined with biometric techniques, security middleware and back-end integration (with standard applications, National register and others).
These are made available in a very modular and flexible way, including build and operate, build and transfer… |
