The European Association of Airport & Seaport Police (EAASP), consortium partner of SafeTravellers, is planning to host a Workshop at the World Border Security Congress in Madrid to report on progress compared to the user requirements expressed at the WBSC 2024 workshop and present the outline plans for pilot testing on the components:
– Attacking biometrics at Airports;
– Fraudulent identity and travel document at sea and land borders;
– New way of identification at the land borders and within vehicles; and
– Enhanced current identification on railway premises.
Participants will be invited to refine the plans for the Pilots to make them as useful as possible to the wider Border Security community. The workshop will discuss opportunities for future engagement of participants in project demonstration activities in simulated operational environments. Participants will get the opportunity to identify issues of importance and thereby maximise their benefits from the final solution.
With ten technology offerings such as; frictionless identification for EU/TCN citizens, detection of identity document fraud, defending against sensor interception, look-a-like, make-up, mimic and manipulation attacks, the research project aims to deliver a mechanism incorporating robust, secure, legally sound, privacy-proof, ethics friendly processes and tools able to connect and linked to the existing and preparational EU systems.
