NGBS
Next Generation Biometric Systems

Biometric recognition systems are nowadays an integral part of identity management systems. However, several problems and vulnerabilities of biometric systems have been identified in the past years.

These issues are related to three core topics: quality, security, and privacy, that define research scope of this research area.

ATHENE researcher contributed his expertise to the draft law on strengthening the security of passports, identity cards and aliens' documents.

Deadline for submissions: May 30, 2024

In our talk we give an insight into looking at passports and vulnerability in passports issuing processes
