Brazil: domestic air link with facial recognition

In Brazil, Congonhas airport (Sao Paulo) is the first to use the technology developed by IDEMIA with face recognition in a few seconds. This system is an asset for streamlining the boarding process.

Tests carried out between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro

This is the first time in the world that passengers between Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro have tested the 100% digital Embarque + Seguro boarding system, without presenting a boarding pass or identification document. This solution combines biometric validation and data analysis, and complies with general data protection legislation. When the pilot phase is validated, the government will be able to deploy this technology in other airports in Brazil, which has many advantages: efficiency, fluidity, safety …

Facial recognition: more and more important

Facial recognition is a global trend, and an integral part of the Embarque + Seguro project. The very precise IDEMIA algorithm offers a high level of security, and a very high rate of authenticity in the identification of individuals. The IDEMIA company is proud to support this project.
The MFACE technology, developed by IDEMIA is used. This technology captures the biometric parameters of the face in just a few seconds, making it very easy to get on board, avoiding queues and delays. In addition to being fast and secure, this process is completely hygienic, eliminating the handling of documents and papers.

Merchantrade (Malaysia) trusts IDEMIA for the subscription of its mobile customers

Biometrics

The main operator of digital payment services in Malaysia, Merchantrade, has chosen to work with IDEMIA. IDEMIA’s Identity Proofing platform will soon speed up and secure customer registration. Merchantrade will use Merchantrade Money (its multi-currency electronic wallet) and eRemit (deposit application).

The advantages of IDEMIA’s Identity Proofing platform

This platform is very powerful for companies when it comes to identity verification. The process is based on real-time verification of biometric data and a picture (in the relevant smartphone). Then, IDEMIA’s artificial intelligence algorithms extract and verify the data.

By using IDEMIA, Merchantrade allows its users to benefit from a unique experience and to open an account very quickly. It also makes it possible to dematerialize the recording and to secure the data.

Between safety, quality and innovation

Merchantrade is a FinTech in Malaysia that offers products and solutions at the forefront of quality and innovation. IDEMIA, with its secure and innovative solution, strengthens the existing FinTech system by providing a reliable, customer-centric solution that sets them apart from the competition with an accelerated procedure for registering new users.

Contactless bank cards: IDEMIA joins the Japanese market

Biometrics

More good news from IDEMIA, the world leader in augmented identity ! The group recently announced that it is entering the Japanese bank card market. It will thus provide Japanese financial institutions (issuers, Fintech) with dual bank cards compliant with the JIS2 standard.

Bank cards adapted to the changing needs of consumers

IDEMIA is constantly improving the security of its contactless bank cards and wishes to extend its range to financial institutions around the world. For example, it is developing a range of eco-responsible cards and services called “GREENPAY”.

To meet growing market demand, IDEMIA is expanding its offer in Japan. It has already provided its contactless cards to large issuers like Toyota Finance Corporation or FinTechs like UPSIDER. These cards are certified by Visa, JCB and many other networks.

What are the advantages for financial institutions?

Several services related to IDEMIA contactless cards can be used by Japanese financial institutions such as:

Smart PIN which allows a user to obtain the PIN code of his card in a dematerialized manner.
Smart Instant Issuance which allows a user to have their card immediately delivered to an agency or point of sale closest to them.
For individuals, there is IDEMIA Connect, which allows you to activate your card by simply tapping on your smartphone.

In France, facial recognition tests underway for the e-”carte vitale”

Biometrics

The french e-”carte vitale” (operating via a mobile application, available on mobile and tablet) is a novelty that is part of the process of dematerialization of procedures and digitalization of the medical sphere, initiated by the french government. It allows users to authenticate to all online health services simply, quickly and securely, using their smartphone.

The first tests of the “apCV” application

The mobile application called “apCV” has been tested since spring 2019 in 2 departments of France. It can be downloaded on mobile or tablet, contains all the data of the card and offers the same healthcare reimbursement functionalities. Other additional features are integrated into it: access to his personal space on Ameli.fr, access to the official health insurance website, doctor’s declaration.

The first experiments since 2019 have been carried out in the Rhône and the Alpes-Maritimes. Users use their application instead of their card.

New tests with facial recognition

Since summer 2019, this card on a mobile application has been tested in two departments. Initially scheduled to end in May 2020, this experiment should be repeated in 10 other departments.

But that’s not the only novelty: the app will use facial recognition. The user will log in using his social security number and it is a video selfie with dynamic detection of proof of life (facial movements) which will then allow him to be identified, the application verifying the face with a saved image.

This system will make it possible to secure the use of the application, prevent any identity theft and make its use simpler and faster.

IDEMIA offers a brand new multi-biometric system: MBIS

Biometrics

IDEMIA’s new multi-biometric identification system, MBIS, is a facial recognition and fingerprint system that can instantly identify a suspect. This system can be used in criminal cases, as part of police investigations or border controls.

A new system used by INTERPOL and provided by IDEMIA

Used by INTERPOL and supplied by IDEMIA, this new identification system will be more powerful: its identification capacity will be stronger, more precise and the user interfaces more ergonomic. This technology is also optimized for research and analysis in large quantities! In particular, it’s possible to do about a million searches per day, combining fingerprint, palmprint and facial recognition searches. It is therefore the most efficient system for forensic science.

These improvements and scientific advances promise the democratization of the use of biometrics in other areas by INTERPOL, for example at border checkpoints.

INTERPOL AND IDEMIA: a long-standing collaboration

This is not the first time that INTERPOL has used IDEMIA for its identification systems: their collaboration began more than 20 years ago, with the first automated fingerprint identification system. Originally, this system enabled INTERPOL member police forces to better collaborate with each other through a common database of suspect fingerprints.

In 2016, INTERPOL also used IDEMIA for a facial recognition system, which identified more than 300 suspects in 2019.

Biometric security is therefore one of the best assets in the fight against crime, which also improves its techniques year after year. The police therefore have every interest in equipping themselves with the most innovative technologies.
