National Defense & Domestic Security Citizen Identity and National ID Card Management

You need trustworthy methods for positively identifying citizens who apply for government services such as voter registration or driver’s licenses. Using a truly tamper-resistant and secure national ID card.
 
You also need to secure both physical and logical access to your facilities and systems. All while providing a high level of service to your citizens and protecting citizens’ personal information.
 
Whether for a national identification program, or to verify identity of citizens’ participation in a specific government service or activity such as voter registration or driver’s licenses, Citizen Identity Management System easily integrates with existing standards-compliant biometric solutions.

Citizen Identity Management System addresses:

• Application and enrollment

  Paper application, self-service kiosk or website, CIMS supports all aspects of enrollment, from application processing and biometrics capture to identity verification. Citizen Identity Management System verifies the completeness of the application. Ensures the supporting documents are presented. And tracks and processes any necessary payments.

• National ID Card issuance and quality assurance

  Citizen Identity Management System provides a secure, standards-based, tamper-resistant card. It can encrypt personal information using a barcode, or a smart card with biometric information stored on a chip. The card can also interface with birth, death and citizenship databases in real time for added security.

• Point-of-service verification and authorization

  With Citizen Identity Management System, a citizen’s identity and participation in a government program—such as voting—is reliably verified immediately. For voting with a smart card, the card can also be updated to indicate the cardholder has already voted, to prevent voting in the same election, so voters can use any polling station.

The Unisys Government Citizen Identity Management System...

Is a  flexible framework also lets you add other programs and services to the same card—for a multipurpose smart card solution. For example, the same card could be used for voter registration as well as a driver’s license. Citizen information could first be gleaned from an established voter registration card as part of the license application process. Then, updates can be recorded on the card regarding the driver’s status—such as having passed the road test and paid any fees.
 
Each national ID card management system implementation has unique requirements. But we’ve taken an innovative approach by creating the Unisys Citizen Identity Management solution blueprint, which uses our 3D Blueprinting approach. The blueprint’s pre-designed components offer core functionality and a secure framework to address many ID management business processes. 3D Blueprinting helps us reveal the cause-and-effect relationships throughout your organization, so you can see the effects of a change before you make it. And provide a secure environment for citizen data.
