Security and Privacy Issues in E-passports

by Ari Juels, David Molnar, David Wagner , 2005
"... Within the next year, travelers from dozens of nations may be carrying a new form of passport in response to a mandate by the United States government. The e-passport, as it is sometimes called, represents a bold initiative in the deployment of two new technologies: Radio-Frequency Identification ( ..."

(RFID) and biometrics. Important in their own right, e-passports are also the harbinger of a wave of next-generation ID cards: several national governments plan to deploy identity cards integrating RFID and biometrics for domestic use. We explore the privacy and security implications of this impending

An Online Secure e-Passport Protocol

by Vijayakrishnan Pasupathinathan , Josef Pieprzyk , Huaxiong Wang - In Proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Information Security Practice and Experience , 2008
"... Abstract. The first generation e-passport standard is proven to be insecure and prone to various attacks. To strengthen, the European Union (EU) has proposed an Extended Access Control (EAC) mechanism for e-passports that intends to provide better security in protecting biometric information of the ..."

of the e-passport bearer. But, our analysis shows, the EU proposal fails to address many security and privacy issues that are paramount in implementing a strong security mechanism. In this paper we propose an on-line authentication mechanism for electronic passports that addresses the weakness in existing

Security analysis of Australian and E.U. e-passport implementation

by Vijayakrishnan Pasupathinathan, Josef Pieprzyk, Huaxiong Wang - Journal of Research and Practice in Information Technology
"... This paper makes a formal security analysis of the current Australian e-passport implementation using model checking tools CASPER/CSP/FDR. We highlight security issues in the current implementation and identify new threats when an e-passport system is integrated with an automated processing system l ..."

Resettable and non-transferable chip authentication for e-passports

by Carlo Blundo, Ahmad-reza Sadeghi, Ivan Visconti - In RFIDSec08 , 2008
"... Abstract. Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) is going to be the preferred technol-ogy for the realization of Machine Readable Travel Documents (MRTDs), and has been deployed in the last generation of e-passports. The proposed technical specifications for e-passport systems have been analyzed and ..."

and criticized by security experts showing various functional, security and privacy deficiencies. The next generation of e-passports will imple-ment more advanced cryptographic mechanisms, collectively known as Extended Access Control, and in particular a protocol referred to as Chip Authentication that protects

An analysis of security and privacy issues relating to RFID enabled ePassports. New Approaches for Security, Privacy and Trust in Complex Environments

by Eleni Kosta , Martin Meints , Marit Hansen , Mark Gasson , 2007
"... Abstract. The European Union sees the introduction of the ePassport as a step towards rendering passports more secure against forgery while facilitating more reliable border controls. In this paper we take an interdisciplinary approach to the key security and privacy issues arising from the use of ..."

Security Issues in ePassports- ICAO Standard and National Implementations as Part of the US Visa-Waiver Program

by Eili Bjelkåsen, Linda Walbeck Olsen , 2006
"... Security issues in ePassports- ICAO Standard and National Implementations as Part of the US Visa-Waiver Program After the 9/11 terror attacks against the US there have been concerns about how to positively identify every individual entering a country. As a direct result ePassports are now being issu ..."

Implementation of an Improved Secure System Detection for E-passport by using EPC RFID Tags

by A. Baith, Mohamed Ayman, Abdel-hamid Kareem, Youssri Mohamed
"... Abstract—Current proposals for E-passport or ID-Card is similar to a regular passport with the addition of tiny contactless integrated circuit (computer chip) inserted in the back cover, which will act as a secure storage device of the same data visually displayed on the photo page of the passport. ..."

are reliability, security and privacy. Privacy is a serious issue since there is no encryption between the readers and the E-passport. However, security issues such as authentication, data protection and control techniques cannot be embedded in one process. In this paper, design and prototype implementation

Security and Privacy of Smartcard-based e-Identity

by Lejla Batina, Bart Jacobs, Wojciech Mostowski, Erik Poll, Pim Vullers
"... The aim of this poster presentation is to give an overview of research into smartcards for e-identity at the Radboud University. It could be accompanied by demonstrations of the e-passport and our own smartcard solutions. Different kinds of smartcards have “sneaked ” into our everyday life over the ..."
