EN Share Contact Search ID security features Ensuring tamper-proof and easy to inspect identity documents PUBLIC SECURITY & IDENTITY ID security features are more critical than ever to prevent identity forgery. Identity document fraud is constantly on the rise and can pose serious consequences for society, the economy, and security. Fraudsters now have access to very sophisticated technologies such as laser engraving, inkjet and 3D printing. This allows them to create fake documents from scratch or modify authentic ones that can deceive non-experts. Ensuring the issuance of tamper-proof identity documents (national ID cards, passports, driver’s licenses, etc.) is key to combatting illegal activities. Furthermore, legitimate ID documents must be easy to authenticate—not only by trained inspectors, but also by citizens themselves. It is crucial to provide citizens with ID documents that have user-friendly and automated features—for quick and reliable inspection, and to streamline identity checks. IDEMIA brings its expertise to governments to ensure that ID documents are both hard to reproduce and easy to inspect. Our unique security concept consists of using different technologies to reproduce the holder’s personal data throughout the document and makes forgery almost impossible. Our innovative ID security features protect the most vulnerable aspect of the document—the portrait. Additionally, our ID documents are developed for Optical Machine Authentication to enable secure, reliable, and fast authentication with maximum convenience.
