The solution includes Sealys eDriver License, the Gemalto smart card platform that securely stores the driver’s information, and a sophisticated card body with specific security features that makes it difficult to copy and counterfeit. Gemalto partnered with Cosmocolor, the prime contractor, who handles the enrolment process and provides onsite personalization of the solution.
The driving license is a microprocessor-based ID document that entitles a specific person to drive a certain category of vehicle. The microprocessor securely stores a picture of the holder, his/her blood type, and the drivers’ credentials to enable digital signature. The microprocessor also contains the history of drivers’ fines, allowing the traffic authorities to easily monitor drivers’ behavior on the roads and could, in the future, be used for insurance companies to calculate policy costs. Fingerprint and facial picture of the driver are encoded in the card body.
Driver enrolment and card personalization is done on the spot when a citizen applies for a new license. The original documents presented during enrolment are scanned and sent online with the collected data (picture, fingerprints and signature) through a secure communication network to a central database for checking and storage.
Monterrey citizens now have the peace of mind that a secure eDocument brings. The potential for identity theft has been radically reduced, and the cards can also be used as a trusted form of ID with banks and other establishments. The card also opens up the potential for future eCard schemes in the future like healthcare which will serve to make the Monterrey citizen experience safer, simpler and more secure.
The Nuevo León state now enjoys a fast, secure and user-friendly scheme for driver registration which reduces fraud and radically reduces administration costs and acts as a reliable ID document. The cards also store the history of drivers’ fines for traffic violations which will allow the authorities to monitor driver behavior and could, in future, be used by insurance companies to calculate policy costs.
Data from the cards can be scanned into a portable card reader using secure, dynamic technology that saves time and eliminates the need for piles of official paperwork.
