Simplified Arrival only uses the biometric facial comparison process at a time and place where travellers are already required by law to verify their identity by presenting a travel document. This means that when travellers arrive from overseas, they will pause for a photo at the primary inspection point which will then be compared to the traveller's passport or visa photo retrieved from government holdings. The facial comparison process only takes a few seconds and is more than 98% accurate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 66 million travellers have participated in the biometric facial comparison process at land, air and sea ports of entry. CBP has reportedly leveraged facial biometrics to prevent more than 500 imposters from illegally entering the United States by using genuine travel documents that were issued to other people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The TouchChip sensor reportedly provides quick and reliable biometric authentication and is ideal for high-traffic environments such as point-of-sale and multi-user applications utilising virtualisation platforms such as Citrix or VMWare. Patented authentication technology captures high-quality images for a variety of fingerprint and liveness detection verification uses. It is recommended that PAD testing be applied to all devices where security is a priority due to the importance of biometrics technology when faced with attempts to gain unauthorised access through the use of fake fingerprints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Testing was conducted on the EikonTouch^{TM<\/sup> Model TC510-A3 sensor and associated TCS PAD Emulator v0.05 Windows 10 application in April 2021. iBeta was unable to gain unauthorised access through 360 presentation attacks (PAs) with six species of attack. The PA success rate resulted in 0%. The Imposter Attack Presentation Match Rate (IAPMR) was also 0%, demonstrating no unauthorised access was achieved with the artefacts applied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n}

Currently, CBP has also implemented biometric facial comparison technology partially or fully at entry into the United States at 172 airports, including Preclearance locations, and at exit from the United States at 32 airports. To date, more than 77 million travellers have participated in the biometric facial comparison process at air, land, and seaports of entry. Since September 2018, CBP has leveraged facial biometrics to prevent more than 700 imposters from illegally entering the United States by using genuine travel documents that were issued to other people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
