Morpho selected for new Interpol initiative
Paris, France
Morpho will provide Interpol with a complete identity management solution to manage the production of new generation electronic documents. This includes multi-biometric data enrollment, identity checks as well as document personalisation.
These travel documents will integrate a range of state-of-the art security features including 3D Photo ID, a three-dimensional laser-engraved portrait of the document holder. An ICAO-compliant portrait, (International Civil Aviation Organisation), along with the holder’s fingerprints, will be stored on a secure chip.
“This second generation Interpol Travel Document developed in collaboration with Morpho raises the bar for international document security, and will be a valuable asset for Interpol officials no matter where in the world their assistance is required,” said Interpol Secretary General Ronald K. Noble
“As a trusted partner of Interpol for over a decade, Morpho is truly proud to have been chosen for this new initiative”, stated Jean-Paul Jainsky, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Morpho. “We will continue to work alongside Interpol to develop new and improved solutions to meet present and emerging security needs of the criminal justice, border control and travel document markets.”
