5 Agenda EU Visa Information System (VIS) Experiences from Pilot Projects (BioDEVII, National VIS Pilot) Technical Guideline Biometrics (TR-03121) Seite: 5

6 BioDEVII ( ): European Pilot Project (8 participating member states) Enrolment, Verification and Identification with focus on fingerprints Organizational consequences for consulates and border posts Interoperability & compliance with international standards Main Experiences in the field of fingerprint enrolment / quality of biometrics Pilot Projects Customers BVA = Mini VIS AFIS Hosting AFIS Dactyloscopic Service Evaluation, Statistics Specification Biometric Software Solutions Seite: 6

7 Pilot Projects National VIS Border Pilot ( ): Implementation and simulation of biometric border checks in the VIS context Improvement of software implementation Analysis of organisational requirements (process, time constraints, placement of scanner, cleaning of devices etc.) Simulation of identity frauds, fake finger attacks Cooperative project with German Border Police (BPol) Federal Office of Administration (BVA) Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) Secunet (Contractor) Seite: 7

8 Biometric Enrolment Seite: 8

9 Fingerprints Capturing in Consular Post Here: Ulan Bator, Mongolia Seite: 9

10 Enrolment Solution Phase 1 Pragmatic Enrolment approach Easy to use client Quality Control with NFIQ Good: 1, 2, 3 Bad: 4, 5 Operator tries to capture best fingerprints Training by Federal Foreign Office and Federal Office of Administration Few Acquisition Guides, Training Material Seite: 10

11 Conclusion Phase 1 BioDEVII Phase 1: ~ fingerprints 2 German consular posts Quality assessment: EU / Morpho Softwarekit USK 4. Rejection Rate: ~ 75% do NOT match minimum requirement for VIS Damascus ~ 69% Ulan Bator ~ 82% BioDEVII Phase 2: Improvement of software Improvement of workflow Usage of Enhancers Improved Training material Seite: 11

12 Rejection rate Rejection Rate Phase 2 Sagem Kit4 rejection rate 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% Damascus Ulan Bator Phase 1 69% 82% Phase 2 25% 43% Phase 1 Phase 2 Significant decrease of Kit4 rejection rate in Phase 2 (up to one third) Seite: 12

13 Rejection rate Rejection Rate after lowering Central Threshold at EU level Sagem Kit4 (New Central) rejection rate 18% 16% 14% 12% 10% 8% 6% 4% 2% 0% Damascus Ulan Bator Phase 1 16% 15% Phase 2 3% 3% Phase 1 Phase 2 Much lower rejection rate for new Central Kit4 Seite: 13

14 Time to enrol (sec.) Resulting Enrolment Duration Development of the average time to enrol Damascus Ulan Bator 50 0 Oct 07 Dec 07 Feb 08 Apr 08 Jun 08 Aug 08 Oct 08 Dec 08 Feb 09 Apr 09 Jun 09 Aug 09 Month Seite: 14

15 Final German Solution Time Optimised Workflow Capturing all images in a row (3 / slap) Quality Control in the background, allowing parallelization of processes Cross matching with NIST Bozorth selects best fingerprint image (like epass) Uniqueness check Only Open Source Software Rejection Rate: still around 3% (good!) Duration reduced: Pure capture process: between 60 and 90 seconds for most cases (no re-capturing) minimum 15 sec of instructions (up to 60) Seite: 15

16 Data Quality Dactyloscopic Service Seite: 16

17 Dactyloscopic Service in BioDEVII Consulates Federal Office of Administration Border AFIS Seite: 17

18 Experiences BioDEVII 2 Persons in 1 ANSI/NIST file False Acceptance Ghost Images Bad Quality Seite: 18

19 Experiences BioDEVII Border: 2nd line Use Case: Identification No HIT Reason: Bad Quality Occurence: ~ 3% Consulates and Border Use Case: AFIS result questionable Reason: Incorrect Data (Ghost images etc.) Occurence: ~ 3% Seite: 19

20 Consulates and Border Use Case: Reason: Occurence: ~ 0.1% AFIS finds wrong people (False Acceptance) Bad Quality, Size of database Solution in BioDEVII: Support of dactyloscopic operator, distincting between technical and business incidents, being able to manually Verify the automated AFIS result. Open Issue: No Dactyloscopic Service for the EU VIS! Seite: 20
