Coesys Mobile Enrollment Stations Gemalto’s Coesys Mobile Enrollment stations feature a ruggedised, suitcase-style design and can be deployed virtually anywhere across the country. CENI will use the Coesys Mobile Enrollment stations to ensure efficient and quality acquisition of voter’s personal details and biometric data that will be used to add new eligible voters, as well as clean and update existing records in the national voter register ahead of the elections. In particular, the use of irrefutable biometric data will help identify and eliminate duplicates. CENI is responsible for managing and operating the entire enrollment process, and consolidating the voter registry. Perfect Fit “We needed a reliable partner to facilitate our ambitious program, which we expect will enroll up to 45 million voters,” said Corneille Nangaa, President of CENI. “With a wealth of experience in enrollment and voter registry applications in Africa and beyond, Gemalto offered an excellent technical fit, and the ability to react quickly to our requirements.” “Our secure mobile enrollment solution will enable CENI to establish a reliable and respected voter registry, based on undisputable biometric data, and provide all the flexibility required to set up voter registration bureau all across the country” said Frederic Trojani, Executive Vice President for Government Programs at Gemalto. “Above all else, it provides the Democratic Republic of Congo with a trusted foundation towards free, fair and transparent elections.”

2,500 units of Gemalto’s portable biometric citizen registration kit was deployed throughout Guinea Gemalto, the world leader in digital security, has managed a comprehensive modernization of Guinea’s voter register on behalf of CENI, the National Independent Electoral Commission in the country. This included the use of 2,500 units of the Coesys Mobile Enrollment station, a portable biometric citizen registration kit deployed throughout Guinea and reaching even the remotest areas of the country. The aim was to ensure that millions of eligible voters were enrolled accurately and reliably ahead of elections which took place in October. Gemalto has provided CENI with the benefits of a single source, end-to-end secure solution that upgrades Guinea’s existing voter registration system and processes. A total of 5000 operators were hired, trained and successfully conducted the enrollment of voters across the country and abroad, using a front-end solution consisting of biometric citizen registration kits with a dedicated user-friendly software. The enrollment stations also featured robust and advanced devices to register citizens even in areas of the country with limited infrastructure. Gemalto also delivered a back-end solution comprising an Automatic Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) to ensure unique and verifiable registration of citizens. The biometric and personal data acquired were securely consolidated to build a national voter register without any duplication. The solution also featured software modules to allow the printing of voters’ lists and voters’ cards by CENI. “CENI put their trust in Gemalto to work as both a solution and service provider, responsible for operating the entire enrollment process in a 45-day critical timeline,” said Bakary Fofana, President of CENI. “We took great benefits of Gemalto extensive experience from over 20 progressive government programs in Africa.” “Gemalto supported CENI in creating a modern voter register that can underpin democratic elections and for which secure voter registration is a critical step,” said Frédéric Trojani, Executive Vice President Government Programs at Gemalto. “Gemalto brought a high level of service for the management and perfect execution of this important project for Guinea’s future.”
The Alliance is also hosting a special breakfast meeting with participation from government/public organisations The Secure Identity Alliance announces its official support and participation in the National eID & ePassport Conference 6th Edition at the Intercontinental Hotel Budapest, Hungary, on 13 and 14 October 2014. On behalf of The Federal Ministry of the Interior (BMI) Germany, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) represented by Dr. Dennis Kügler and The Security Identity Alliance represented by Frederic Trojani, Chairman of the Board, will be chairing a Workshop on eIDAS on Monday 13 October at 16:15. With the eIDAS Regulation coming into force this year and directly applicable across the EU, the workshop will look at where and how a European Model of implementation can be achieved that can bring more value to Member States, companies and citizens alike and improve Europe's position. What are the key usages for digital identity in Europe? The workshop will do a quick review of key stakes: eGovernment, health, education, transport, bank, telecoms, energy, social support and other key economic applications for digital identity and how digital identities are central to the future of economic and social intermediation in Europe. Why advocating an European model? The workshop will consider relative advantages to adopt a common model (against not doing it) in key fields such as security, privacy, interoperability, legal consent and others. How can eIDAS be implemented in order to best reflect this European model? What recommendations for the identity infrastructure in Europe? The Alliance counts seven member companies to date, including the leaders in security technology and two Government Observers, EIDA (UAE) and BMI (Germany) Through a synoptic look of different states implementation (Estonia, Sweden, Germany, UK), the workshop will look at key aspects of the technical, legal interoperability aspects through trust levels, standards, and secure technology. From infrastructure to architecture: building interfaces and interoperability for long term preservation What are the key architecture recommendations to improve interoperability within a European model through Identities, credentials, signature, PKI and crypto for long term validation. The Alliance is also hosting a special breakfast meeting - welcoming participation from government/public organisations interested to foster international collaboration on Digital ID challenges and the issues of data security, citizen privacy, identity, authentication – and more. In its first year, the Alliance has laid the foundation for scaling up in years to come. The Alliance counts seven member companies to date, including the leaders in security technology and two Government Observers, EIDA (UAE) and BMI (Germany). The Alliance has launched two workgroups and has already published some key reports including one jointly conducted by the Secure Identity Alliance and The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) confirming explosive growth of eServices based on Trusted Identity.
