Siemens installs biometrics infrastructure for Swiss passports : GlobalGiants.com

Swiss Passport Siemens


Photo: Since the end of 2006, Swiss citizens have been able to apply for passports which contain an electronically stored copy of their passport photo identifying the passport holder without the possibility of error. The information is stored on a chip that is embedded into the passport and protected against unauthorized access or manipulation. Siemens IT Solutions and Services was commissioned to provide the entire solution for recording the biometric data and processing it for the production of the new passports. Each year about 100,000 passports can be issued. |GlobalGiants.com|
