Strengthening security
The first and most obvious benefit is the improvement of national security. By identifying false documents, border authorities can prevent the entry into the country of individuals with malicious intent, such as terrorists, traffickers or other criminals who might try to use forged identities or stolen documents to cross borders.
Prevention of illegal immigration
The software helps identify individuals trying to enter the country illegally using forged documents, thus helping to reduce the number of illegal entries and maintain the integrity of the immigration system.
Operational efficiency
Automating the document verification process through specialised software can greatly speed up border controls, reducing waiting times for legitimate travellers and allowing authorities to focus on suspicious cases, improving operational efficiency.
Improving the traveller experience
By reducing waiting times and simplifying border controls for legitimate travellers, the software helps to improve the overall travel experience, boosting tourism and international trade.
Compliance with international standards
Many countries have strict legal and regulatory requirements for border control. The use of advanced document verification software helps countries meet these international standards, avoiding sanctions or criticism from international organisations.
Integration with international databases
The software can be integrated with international databases for checking lost or stolen documents, such as Interpol or other security databases, allowing almost instantaneous detection of compromised documents.
Adaptability and updating
Document forgers are constantly evolving in their techniques. Upgradable software can quickly adapt to detect new methods of forgery, ensuring that border authorities stay one step ahead of the tactics used by the perpetrators.
Data collection and analysis
The software not only verifies the authenticity of documents, but can also collect statistical data on travel flows, providing authorities with valuable information for security planning and resource management.
