Abstract:
The travel process today
Everyone is familiar with the way we travel today. We start with the registration of the traveler at a self-service kiosk. This is normally a passport, or in terms of ICAO, the eMRTD – where the document is read and, ensuring everything is correct according to the specification, the verification of the individual against this travel document takes place.
Next, more or less seamlessly, you go to a gate that uses face recognition. The traveler is verified and can cross the border or go to the aircraft and make the boarding process. This is currently state-of-the-art, is established in different setups, and the trust element here is the travel document with the electronic chip and the digital information from a government authority. This is what we call the Trust Anchor.
