“To collect accurate, verifiable and quality passenger data as early and as far from the border as possible.
And for this data to be continually reconciled and enriched throughout the passenger journey to
enhance border security and improve passenger facilitation.”
Intelligence-Based & Risk-Driven Approach to Border Security
Key Challenges – Extract from ABC Global Market Analysis (2012)

Key Challenges
Passenger Volumes – the number of passengers eligible to use an automated border control programme; the number of passengers opting to enrol in a fee-based scheme
Costs – particularly from a government perspective of deploying and maintaining the system, in a climate of economic austerity
Universal Implementation – international agreements, mutual recognition, interoperability, multiple biometrics, data privacy
Border Transformation & Change Management – API, iAPI, PNR, Visas, Entry/Exit, Warnings Index, Risk-Based Targeting etc.
Automated Border Control – European Economic Area (EEA) + Switzerland (CH)

Within the EU, the target population for Automated Border Control is principally adult EEA/CH passengers with valid e-Passports
With an ever-increasing number of passengers presenting e-Passports, there is a compelling business case for the deployment of e-Gates at key ports, airports and points of entry
Carriers, port operators and passengers must be engaged to raise awareness and drive adoption. Many eligible passengers are not aware of and do not use e-Gates
Extending the Eligible Population to Visa Holders

Where a biometric visa issuance process exists, there is a clear opportunity to extend the eligible population to include all holders of a valid biometric visa
The travel document in which the visa was issued serves as the token to retrieve the biometric data captured during the issuance process
Rather than the “default mode” of verifying the biometric data stored on the e-Passport, the verification process can generate a real-time interrogation of a Visa Information System (VIS)
Extending the Eligible Population to Residence Permit Holders

Where a biometric residency permit exists, there is another obvious opportunity to extend the eligible population to include all holders of a valid Residence Permit
Strengthen entry/exit control
Automated Border Control during period of validity of Residence Permit
UK IRIS: Enrolment for EEA/CH & Other Nationalities

The first Automated Border Control system installed in the UK, in operation for ~7 years, now entering phased decommissioning
Registration for IRIS is no longer possible. And, as of late 2012, the system will only be available at London Heathrow T3 & T5
Beyond EEA/CH Nationals, as a voluntary enrolment scheme, IRIS was available to Permanent Residents, Frequent Short Term Visitors, Diplomats, Consular Officers, NATO Armed Forces Personnel (et al)
UK government remains committed to a long-term replacement that will allow specific groups of Non-EEA Nationals a differentiated means of passing the border …
Extending the Eligible Population to Third Country Nationals (TCNs)

Where well-established relationships exist with Third Countries, where robust measures are in place to secure the document issuance process, and/or where ABC/RTP Progammes exist in those countries, specific groups could benefit from and use Automated Border Controls
Either through bilateral agreements (e.g. NL/US FLUX) or through voluntary enrolment (e.g. UK IRIS), the eligible population can be rapidly extended to include key groups of Third Country Nationals
Transportation Workers ID Credential / Restricted Access ID Card

Beyond the obvious benefits of developing a standard Transportation Workers Identification Credential / Restricted Access ID Card (e.g. common vetting standard, differentiated non-passenger security screening) holders of the card could also benefit from and use Automated Border Controls
While the population would be comparatively smaller in number (and many are likely to have an EU e-Passport), it nonetheless represents an additional target population of identifiable low-risk travellers to reduce demand on the manual controls at the border
Detect higher risk passengers, suspicious routes and patterns of behavior for risk-based screening
Data and intelligence which is valuable to border control is also valuable to aviation security
The Value of Data
Travel & Identity Document Data Residency Visa (where applicable) Current Residential Address Data Former Residential Address Data Contact Details (phone, e-mail etc.) Employment Data Employment History (past five years) Previous Violations – Immigration, Customs, Criminal Record etc. Additional Data Provisioning – Beyond API, iAPI, PNR & Biometrics Payment Data (e.g. credit card, bank details etc.) Statement of Agreement Acknowledgement of Terms & Conditions
Checkpoint of the Future – Additional (Enrolment) Data Requirements

#11
Regulatory Reform (Interior/Transport) Standardized Enrolment Requirements Eligibility Criteria Real-Time Data Analysis Issuance of Real-Time Screening Directives Data Capture & Document Authentication at Security Checkpoint
Where they exist, National Border Targeting Centers and/or Passenger Information Units are resourced for targeting and control; not enrolment and background verification procedures
CANADA – NEXUS/RAIC for the Trusted Traveller Security Line is an excellent example of how these challenges can be overcome
The Challenges of Combining Aviation Security & Automated Border Control

The Road Ahead – Driving Global Adoption of Automated Border Controls
© AUGMENTIQ 2012 | [email protected] | www.augmentiq.com #13
Demands on limited resources at the border and at the aviation security checkpoint will continue to increase
Passenger numbers will continue to rise A smart combination of biographic and biometric data will enable
effective targeting, automation, pre-clearance, expedited processing and improved passenger facilitation
Automated Border Control will need to become the default mode for controlling millions of passengers every year
A holistic view of the border and of the passenger journey demands joined up thinking and systems – from visa issuance, data analysis and risk assessment, to identity management, entry/exit controls to consistently delivering a positive passenger experience
