Mobile IDs are powerful credentials, and there are numerous use cases beyond proving driving privileges. The prospects are endless, from sporting permits to travel documents and gun licenses to health IDs.
In the third episode of a four-part podcast series, SecureIDNews explores the current landscape of state pilots around mobile driver’s licenses. The mobile IDs are rolling out in a series of innovative trials and many additional state legislatures are instructing their DMVs to prepare. Hear about the ‘state of the states’ in this episode of our podcast series, Investigating Mobile IDs and Credentials.
In the second episode of a four-part podcast series, SecureIDNews investigates both the privacy concerns and the opportunities for privacy enhancement that arise when traditional ID cards and credentials migrate to mobile devices. Mobile ID is poised to play a role in credentials including driver’s licenses, sporting licenses, professional licenses and travel documents. But key to acceptance will be communicating the privacy-enabling features to a cautious citizenry. Learn the ins and outs from key industry leaders in this episode of our podcast series, Investigating Mobile IDs and Credentials.
The name Stephanie Schuckers is almost synonymous with liveness detection in biometrics. But it doesn’t end there. Dr. Schuckers is also a professor at Clarkson University, director of the Center for ID Technology Research, founder of a biometric startup and mentor to an ongoing crop of new biometric scientists. Last year, the startup she founded was acquired by a leading biometric company. This month, she is being honored as a recipient of the 2017 Women in Biometrics Awards.
Biometrics was neither a household term nor a ‘handset technology’ when Frances Zelazny began working with facial recognition two decades ago. During her career she has helped shape the use of biometrics for security, identity and now for payment applications. Throughout, she has advocated for responsible use guidelines and practices, something that has proven essential to the industry’s maturation.
Liane Moriyama retired last summer as Administrator of the Hawaii Criminal Justice Data Center and she is honored for her innovative career as a 2017 winner of the Women in Biometrics awards. She was instrumental in bringing the first AFIS to Hawaii and helping other states to follow suit. But it is her crossover between the use of biometrics for law enforcement and its use to protect vulnerable populations that defines her most significant contributions.
Creator of the FBI's Biometric Center for Excellence and Deputy Assistant Director of the Information Services Branch of CJIS, Kimberly Del Greco is a go to biometrics lead for the Federal government. She was instrumental in the Next Generation Identification Program that redefined algorithms and modalities to increase the agency's biometric match rates and image quality.
In this first episode of a four-part podcast series, SecureIDNews explores the use of IDs and credentials on mobile devices. Agencies and issuers are rapidly working to augment their physical ID cards and documents with mobile versions, expanding both security and functionality. Learn how and why from key industry leaders during this kick-off to our podcast series, Investigating Mobile IDs and Credentials.
“I came into this field not as an expert in biometrics. My background is in marketing and events,” says Isabelle Moeller, chief executive of the Biometrics Institute and a 2017 Women In Biometrics winner. Moeller joined the fledgling Biometrics Institute in 2002 to help grow the organization’s membership. The institute shares information and provides guidance in the responsible use of biometrics to and from a global list of member organizations.
In this podcast, SIA’s CEO Don Erickson and SecureIDNews Publisher Chris Corum talk about the 2017 Women in Biometrics awards, highlighting the program’s growth over the years and what it has come to mean to the international biometrics and security community. Nominations are open until Sept. 29 so don’t delay.
The eventual demise of the plastic card seems inevitable to many working with government issued credentials, thanks to the security and convenience of mobile as an ID. But will mobile be a replacement or a complement? In this podcast, we explore this question and preview a webinar that delves deep into the topic of co-existence.
In this podcast episode, SecureIDNews' Gina Jordan talks with Colin Wallis about Kantara's three pilots recently funded by the Department of Homeland Security. Each pilot focuses on a unique aspect of digital identity – such as addressing first responder authentication and the use of derived credentials from PIV cards. The pilot recipients include Lockstep Technologies, Gluu, and Exponent.
“We don’t want to confuse existing customers or future customers that Cogent’s been lost or disappeared,” says Gemalto’s Neville Pattinson, in this episode of the re:ID Podcast series. “It’s now an additional part of the Gemalto portfolio. So we’ll continue to brand it in terms of Cogent from a biometrics side.” In the podcast, you’ll learn just what the Gemalto acquisition of 3M’s Identity Management Unit brings to the company’s government and enterprise offerings and how it sets the company up for a deeper run in many large scale identity projects.
In this podcast, part 2 of our conversation with Andre Boysen of SecureKey, we explore the specifics of how ledger-based cryptographic systems like blockchain can empower digital identity. Learn how he envisions strong identity across the Internet without risking personal data, breaches or privacy.
In this podcast, Andre Boysen of SecureKey talks about his company's work with the Digital ID and Authentication Council of Canada (DIACC) and IBM to develop a digital identity network using blockchain technology. He believes the world must transition from user name and password based authentication to secure methods that put the user in control of personal information. He says SecureKey's triple blind approach coupled with blockchain is an ideal solution.
The industry organization that for more than two decades promoted the use of smart cards is expanding its mission to include other secure technologies. The Smart Card Alliance recently became the Secure Technology Alliance to reflect this new focus. The group's longtime executive director, Randy Vanderhoof, talks about the organization's plans and the future of secure embedded technologies -- from wearables to IoT -- in this episode of the RegardingID Podcast.
The biometric authentication system of the future may include passwords sent through the human body. Researchers at the University of Washington have come up with a uniquely secure way to transmit data. They say it can be done using low-frequency transmissions generated by fingerprint sensors and touchpads found on devices we use everyday. Vikram Iyer, a PhD student in electrical engineering working in UW's Wireless and Mobile Systems Laboratory, spoke with Regarding ID's Gina Jordan about the paper he co-authored with two other UW researchers.
The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks sent Dr. Nicole Spaun on a new career path. “The hijackers went through airports. They had surveillance and they couldn’t match up the faces because the automated systems didn’t exist at the time, and they didn’t have enough trained people to look at all the imagery,” Spaun says. At that time Spaun had a background focused on examining the geology of other planets. “That’s when I contacted a colleague I knew at the FBI and said, ‘Are you guys hiring?'” Facial recognition is being used extensively now for identification and verification. As the Principal Face Biometric Expert for Morphotrak, Spaun designs training programs in face comparison. She talked with Regarding ID’s Gina Jordan about the need for companies to make sure they’re as invested in training humans in facial recognition as they are in paying for expensive automated systems.
Automobiles are vulnerable to being hacked these days much like computers. It’s becoming more common for modern cars to come equipped with on board computers and other electronic systems that connect to the Internet. But often forgotten in this equation is securing these systems with necessary authentication and security systems. Security researchers were recently able to hack into a Nissan Leaf – an electric car – adjusting the air conditioning and heated seats. Even worse, white-hat hackers were able to manipulate the controls of a Jeep Cherokee, impacting the radio and windshield wipers. They even described how the vehicle’s transmission was shut down remotely. Paul Madsen with Ping Identity talks with Regarding ID’s Gina Jordan about the risks for drivers – and what automakers and owners can do to ward off these kinds of attacks.
In the future, your access to secure areas may depend not on a password or fingerprint – but your brain. Researchers at Binghamton University in New York have developed a way to verify a person by measuring the brain’s response to certain stimuli. The team is reporting up to 100% accuracy with the technology, known as Brainprint. A problem for most widely used biometrics is that they are noncancelleable. For example, if fingerprint or iris images are stolen they cannot be changed. In this study, a Brainprint can be reset by periodically changing the stimuli. Assistant Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Zhanpeng Jin spoke with Regarding ID’s Gina Jordan about the research.
