DISEASES-ANIMAL TO HUMAN

REVELATION 6:7-8 (500 MILLION DEAD EACH FROM THE 4 JUDGEMENTS)(2 BILLION TOT DEAD HERE)
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse:(CHLORES GREEN) and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth,(2 billion) of (8 billion) to kill with sword,(WEAPONS)(500 million) and with hunger,(FAMINE)(500 million) and with death,(INCURABLE DISEASES)(500 million) and with the beasts of the earth.(ANIMAL TO HUMAN DISEASE)(500 million).

IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS HERE WERE I LIVE AT THE OLD AGE HOME IN HANOVER. THEY HAVE BEEN HIRING SIKHS LIKE CRAZY. AT LEAST 25 PERCENT ARE NOW SIKHS OF THE 120 WORKERS HERE. AND I HAVE AN ISRAELI FLAG IN MY ROOM WITH IN BIG LETTERS BESIDE IT. ITS ISRAELS LAND. AND THE PALESTIANS DO NOT EXIST. THEIR NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF ARABS. AND AT LEAST 3 OF THE SIKHS AFTER THEY GIVE ME SNACKS MOSTLY AT NIGHT BUT SOMETIMES AT AFTERNOON SNACKS. THEY SLAM MY DOOR SHUT AFTER THEY LEAVE MY ROOM. THEN I THOUGHT TODAY I WOULD LOOK UP SIKHS AND SLAMMING DOORS ON CHRISTIANS. THEN WHAT I CAME UP WITH IS THE GURDWARA IN A SIKH TEMPLE MEANING THE DOOR OF THE GURU. SO I FIGURE WHEN THEY SLAM MY DOOR. THEIR SLAMMING THE DOOR ON CHRISTIANITY. AND SAYING OUR CULT AND ISLAM WILL CONTROL THE WORLD RELIGIONS. I'LL BE EXPECTING A ROOM FOR THESE SIKHS TO WORSHIP IN DOWN THE LINE. AND I FIGURE IN 6 MONTHS HALF THE WORKERS IN HERE WILL BE SIKH AND MUSLIMS. THEY COME FROM KITCHENER OR MISSISAGA OR BRAMPTON IN TORONTO BY WHEN I USED TO ASK THEM QUESTIONS. NO MORE I AM SICK OF THEM. AND THEY ALL COME FROM INDIA. WHY WILL THE LIBERALS NOT SHUT THE BORDER DOWN OVER THE INDIAN LEADER MODI KILLING A CANADIAN ON CANADIAN LAND. HAVING HIM ASSASSINATED. IS MY QUESTION TO THE GOVERNMENT OF CANADA. REVERA MUST HAVE A CONTRACT WITH THE SIKHS AND MUSLIMS IN TORONTO AND KITCHENER. TO HIRE THEM. MOST OF THESE SIKHS THAT WORK HERE HAVE ONLY BEEN IN CANADA 2 OR 3 MONTHS. HOW CAN THEY BE ALLOWED TO WORK AS SOON AS THEY COME TO CANADA. IS ANOTHER QUESTION OF MINE.

The gurdwara (I CALL IT THE GURUS TEMPLE)

The Sikh place of worship is known as the gurdwara. This translates as ‘the door of the Guru’. All gurdwaras display the Nishan Sahib flag, on which appears the Khanda, which is the symbol of Sikhism.The gurdwara is not only a place for meditation and prayer. It is the main place for the Sikh community (the sangat) to gather together and it is also a place where Sikhs and the wider community can learn about the faith. It is a relaxed place of worship and there is no expectation for Sikhs to attend the gurdwara at all. However, because it is a place of community where people are made welcome, many Sikhs choose to attend the gurdwara on a regular basis.

Biometrics to recover stolen US aid meant for Covid-hit firms? No way-Sep 28, 2023, 1:14 pm EDT-| Jim Nash

Anyone expecting to hear how biometrics can be used to recoup the hundreds of billions of dollars defrauded from U.S. government Covid assistance programs felt foolish after a Congressional hearing on theft this week.Rather, the government has to make it easy and financially attractive for people who know of fraud to become whistleblowers. All the information at Washington’s disposal cannot even narrow to the nearest hundred billion how much aid was stolen.Identity verification would be the rearmost of rear-guard actions, and that came through in testimony before the House Committee on Small Business. Committee members were considering innovative ways to win back pandemic loans and aid made based on fraudulent applications and, not incidentally, punish the thieves.Witnesses, one the senior director of fraud investigations at identity-verification service firm ID.me, had nothing to say about how biometrics can be used in any significant way on the problem.But 10 minutes before the funds were released to prevent an economic collapse unknown since the Black Death, that would have been a good time to have tools to thwart fraud strategies like presentation attacks.A couple of vociferous House members in the committee took the opportunity to criticize the Small Business Administration, manager of the hard-hit Payment Protection Program, for not making better use of ID verification when approving loans to struggling businesses and fraudsters.There is no record of the representatives, who as committee members oversee operations of the SBA, raising the issue prior to the historic tsunami of scams perpetrated by individuals, businesses and other nations.In fact, Richard Breeden, one of the meeting’s witnesses, said he has managed high-profile efforts to take back fraud for 35 years and he has never seen a government aid program that faced a false-claims rate of less than 30 percent. Breeden, a former chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, also owns Breeden Capital Management.

Iran’s Raisi slams normalization with Israel as ‘reactionary and regressive’Iranian president claims establishing ties with Jewish state is a ‘foreigners’ desire,’ as Saudi Arabia and Israel move toward agreement-By AFP Today,OCT 1,23- 7:09 pm 0

TEHRAN, Iran – Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi on Sunday denounced any attempts by regional countries to normalize relations with its arch-enemy Israel as “reactionary and regressive.”The remarks came amid ongoing US-brokered negotiations between Israel and Saudi Arabia to establish formal ties, with the United States saying on Friday that the two countries are moving toward the outline of a deal.“Normalizing relations with the Zionist regime is a reactionary and regressive move by any government in the Islamic world,” Raisi said during an international Islamic conference held in Tehran.An Israeli delegation is expected in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, days after the first official visit by an Israeli minister to the kingdom.Saudi Arabia also sent a delegation to the occupied West Bank on Wednesday for the first time in three decades in a bid to reassure the Palestinians ahead of the prospective deal.Raisi on Sunday further labeled any normalization attempt as the “foreigners’ desire,” while stating that “surrender and compromise” regarding Israel were not on the table.“The only option for all the fighters in the occupied land and the Islamic world is to resist and stand against the enemies,” he said, reiterating Iran’s position that Jerusalem must be “liberated.”In 1967, Israel captured and then annexed East Jerusalem, which the Palestinians see as the future capital of their proposed state.An agreement between Israel and Saudi Arabia would follow the US-brokered Abraham Accords which saw Israel establish diplomatic relations in 2020 with three Arab countries.Last month, on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly, Raisi said any “relationships between regional countries and the Zionist regime would be a stab in the back of the Palestinians.”Shiite-dominated Iran and Sunni-majority Saudi Arabia, two regional powerhouses, resumed relations, severed since 2016, under a China-brokered deal announced in March.

2 killed and 2 others hurt in gangland car bombing, ensuing police chase-Assailant said to hurl explosive at car carrying rival members of crime family; cops who were on their tail fatally shoot suspect, arrest another-By ToI Staff Today,OCT 1,23 11:28 pm 0

Two men were killed and two injured in a car bombing and ensuing police chase on Sunday near the southern town of Kiryat Malachi, hours after a deadly shooting in the coastal city of Ashkelon.According to Hebrew media accounts, police were in the area tracking feuding members of the Jarushi crime family, who were driving in two separate vehicles, when one threw an explosive at the other.
Officers then launched a pursuit of the assailants.Paramedics pulled a 37-year-old man, who was unconscious and lacked vital signs, from the burning vehicle between Routes 3 and 7, according to a Magen David Adom ambulance service statement.He was declared dead at the scene.A 33-year-old man with moderate wounds was treated at the scene and then taken to Kaplan Medical Center in Rehovot.While in pursuit, police fired shots toward the suspects at the nearby Ram Masmia Junction, killing one and injuring another, according to statements from police and security at the Nahal Sorek Nature Reserve.Police placed the moderately injured man, a Ramle resident, under arrest. He was later taken to Kaplan Medical Center for treatment, according to Magen David Adom.The violence came after a man was shot dead in the southern coastal city of Ashkelon, apparently in connection with another gang war.Magen David Adom ambulance services tried resuscitating the man at the scene of the shooting and he was later declared dead at the southern coastal city’s Laniado Hospital.Police later announced two suspects were detained in connection to the shooting of the 22-year-old and said Deputy Commissioner Amir Cohen, who heads the southern police district where Ashkelon is located, met with senior officers to discuss the investigation.The man was identified by Hebrew media reports as a well-known criminal, with Channel 12 news reporting that he was arrested two weeks ago.The report also said the man was a member of the Lavi crime family.After crime boss Benny Shlomo was killed last year, his organization fractured, with some members reportedly joining the Lavi family, while others chose not to do so.
The two sides are now engaged in a feud.

IDF reportedly strikes Iranian weapons shipment near Damascus-State media doesn’t confirm reports from opposition media outlets, which claim shipments were en route to Lebanon; no immediate reports of casualties-By ToI Staff Today, 3:58 am 2

The Israel Defense Forces reportedly carried out airstrikes near Damascus after midnight on Sunday, targeting an Iranian weapons shipment that appeared to be making its way to Lebanon.The airstrikes were reported by news sites affiliated with the Syrian opposition and were not confirmed by state media.The strikes targeting sites belonging to the Syrian army and pro-Iranian militia groups took place in al-Dimas, just west of Damascus, the reports said.There were no immediate reports of casualties, and it was not clear the extent of the damage caused by the alleged strikes.Footage posted on social media caught explosions heard throughout the area, but it was unclear whether they were caused by airstrikes hitting their targets or Syrian air defense projectiles.As a rule, the IDF does not comment on specific strikes in Syria, though it has admitted to conducting hundreds of sorties against Iran-backed groups attempting to gain a foothold in the country, over the last decade.The military says it attacks arms shipments believed to be bound for those groups, chief among them Lebanon’s Hezbollah terror group. Additionally, airstrikes attributed to Israel have repeatedly targeted Syrian air defense systems.Israel has repeatedly accused the Syrian military of actively assisting the Iran-backed Hezbollah in the area.Last week, two men were killed in an alleged Israeli drone strike in southern Syria, media outlets affiliated with Syria’s opposition reported.The two men were reportedly riding on a motorcycle when they were struck by a missile.They were named in unverified reports as Ali Okasha Abu Jarrah and Zaher as-Saadi Abu Alaa, and their affiliations were not known. Rumors on social media said they were members of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, but sources in the terror group told the Lebanese al-Ahed newspaper there was no truth to this.Emanuel Fabian contributed to this report.

Far-right Republican seeks to oust McCarthy after bill to avoid government shutdown-US House speaker tells Florida lawmaker to ‘bring it on,’ after being accused by latter of violating pledges he made in January to secure enough GOP support for speakership
By KEVIN FREKING Today, OCT 1,23-9:13 pm 0

WASHINGTON (AP) — US Representative Matt Gaetz said Sunday that he would try to remove House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, a fellow Republican, from his leadership position this week, after McCarthy relied on Democratic support to pass legislation that avoided a government shutdown. “Bring it on,” McCarthy responded.Gaetz, a longtime McCarthy nemesis, said in broadcast interviews that McCarthy was in “brazen, material breach” of agreements he made with House Republicans in January when he ran for speaker. As a result, Gaetz said he would be filing a “motion to vacate the chair,” as House rules permit.McCarthy’s response: “So be it. Bring it on. Let’s get over with it and let’s start governing.”No speaker has ever been removed from office through such a move. Procedural votes could be offered to halt the motion or it could trigger a House floor vote on whether McCarthy, a California Republican, should remain speaker.“I think we need to rip off the Band-Aid,” said Gaetz, a Florida Republican. “I think we need to move on with new leadership that can be trustworthy.”Republicans just ended a tumultuous week in which the US Congress flirted with a government closure and the majority party in the House could not even pass its own bill in an effort to avoid a shutdown. GOP lawmakers complained the House waited too long to take up annual spending bills, squandering an opportunity to force the Senate to negotiate on spending and policy priorities.McCarthy has continually tried to placate the conservative wing and on Friday, he brought a short-term plan to fund the government while enacting steep spending cuts of nearly 30 percent for many agencies and strict border security provisions. But that was deemed insufficient by some Republicans, and 21 joined with every Democrat in voting against the package.McCarthy pivoted on Saturday to a bill that would draw Democratic support. It keeps agencies funded at current levels into mid-November and provides $16 billion in disaster relief for states and communities dealing with hurricanes and other natural disasters. Democrats jumped at the chance to keep the government open and both chambers passed the bill by overwhelming margins.Gaetz had threatened to file his ouster motion if McCarthy worked with Democrats and he said the spending package blew past spending guardrails that McCarthy had agreed to in his bid to become speaker.McCarthy has the support of a large majority of House Republicans, but because the GOP holds such a slim 221-212 majority, he may need votes from some Democrats to keep his job. When asked how many Republicans he had on board, Gaetz said he had enough to ensure that if McCarthy retains the speakership he would “be serving at the pleasure of the Democrats.”“The only way Kevin McCarthy is speaker of the House at the end of this coming week is if Democrats bail him out,” Gaetz said.Gaetz’s tactics have generated considerable scorn from many House Republicans. Representative Mike Lawler, a New York Republican, spoke of the Florida representative’s “diatribe of delusional thinking” and said Gaetz was acting for “personal, political reasons.”Still, McCarthy is unpopular with some within his party. That was on display in January, when it took 15 rounds of voting to gain the support he needed within his conference to become speaker.The rules of the House allow for any single lawmaker — Democrat or Republican — to make a “motion to vacate the chair,” essentially an attempt to oust the speaker from that leadership post through a privileged resolution.In January, as he ran for speaker, McCarthy agreed to give as few as five Republican members the ability to initiate a vote to remove him. But when that was not good enough for his critics, he reduced that threshold to one — the system that historically has been the norm.Proponents of allowing a lone lawmaker to file the motion said it promotes accountability, noting its long history in the House. The last use of the motion was in 2015, when then-representative Mark Meadows of North Carolina, a Republican who later became US president Donald Trump’s White House chief of staff, introduced a resolution to declare the speaker’s office vacant. Two months later, Boehner, an Ohio Republican, said he would be stepping down.McCarthy expressed optimism Sunday that Gaetz would fail and noted that Gaetz has been after him since he ran for speaker.“Yes, I’ll survive,” McCarthy said.Gaetz appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” and ABC’s “This Week,” while McCarthy was on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” Lawler was on ABC.

Democrat pulls fire alarm in House building amid vote on bill to prevent shutdown-Jamaal Bowman claims mistake, says he was trying to get through a door that is usually open as he rushed to get to votes-By Farnoush Amiri Today, OCT 1,23-1:13 am 5

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democratic Rep. Jamaal Bowman acknowledged triggering a fire alarm Saturday in one of the US Capitol office buildings as lawmakers scrambled to pass a bill to fund the government before the midnight shutdown deadline.The fire alarm sounded out around noon in the Cannon House Office Building and prompted a building-wide evacuation at a time when the House was in session and staffers were working in the building. The building was reopened an hour later after Capitol Police determined it was not a threat.The GOP-controlled House Administration Committee, which oversees issues pertaining to the Capitol complex, posted a picture of a person pulling the fire alarm who appeared to be Bowman.The New York lawmaker told reporters hours later that it was a mistake and that he was rushing to get to votes and was trying to get through a door that is usually open, but was closed due to it being a weekend.“I thought it would help me open the door,” he said about pulling the trigger, denying that it was an effort to stall anything.Capitol Police said in a statement late Saturday that an “investigation into what happened and why continues.”???????NEW — Capitol Police are circulating this photo of a man pulling the fire alarm in Cannon. Looks a lot like Jamaal Bowman pic.twitter.com/khzpigSvWI-— Jake Sherman (@JakeSherman) September 30, 2023-At the time of the evacuation, House Democrats were working to delay a vote on a 45-day funding bill to keep federal agencies open. They said they needed time to review the 71-page bill that Republicans abruptly released to avoid a shutdown.The funding package was ultimately approved 335-91 on Saturday afternoon, with most Republicans and almost all Democrats — including Bowman — supporting the bill.After the vote, Republicans, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, criticized Bowman over the fire alarm. Some lawmakers even floated the idea of drafting a motion to expel or censure him from the House.This should not go without punishment,” McCarthy told reporters. “This is an embarrassment.”House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reacts to Bowman pulling fire alarm:“We’ve watched how people have been treated if they’ve done something wrong in this Capitol. It would be interesting to see how he is treated.”pic.twitter.com/byaEd0HIDs — The Post Millennial (@TPostMillennial) September 30, 2023-He added that he plans to talk with the Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries of New York to figure out a possible response.But Jeffries met with Bowman shortly after the vote and Bowman said his fellow New York colleague was “supportive.”“He understood that it was a mistake and that’s all it was,” he said. Bowman added that the reaction from McCarthy and other Republicans is dishonest.“(McCarthy’s) trying to weaponize a mistake of me coming, rushing to get to a vote as something nefarious when it wasn’t,” he said.

Australia rethinks data privacy-Sep 29, 2023, 3:24 pm EDT-| Beverly Crawford-Westre

Following the Attorney-General’s Privacy Act Review Report, the Albanese government has announced its proposals to protect its citizens against identity fraud and scams and ensure the global business competitiveness of Australia.The initial Privacy Act Review Report, released in February 2023, aimed to clarify the act’s scope, uplift individual protections, provide clarity for regulated entities and bolster enforcement tactics. Over 500 public responses were considered in the government’s recently released official response to the report. In its response, the government has signaled its agreement with most of the 116 recommendations.Among the endorsements are the proposed establishment of stronger data protections for children, curbing the ability of companies to target children for marketing purposes, and the introduction of a Children’s Online Privacy Code.Additionally, the government has acknowledged that excessive reliance on consent can place an unrealistic burden on individuals to understand and manage their data privacy risks. It proposes shifting the burden from the consumer and, instead, requiring data-gathering entities to obtain informed consent for personal data handling and holding them accountable for the proper security and management of gathered data.Currently, most small businesses with an annual turnover of AU$3 million (roughly US$1.9 million) or less are exempt from the Privacy Act and have no obligation to keep personal data secure or to notify affected individuals in the event of a data breach. The government has agreed in principle to remove this exemption after conducting an impact analysis and allowing for a reasonable transition period.Following public outcry over its impact on journalism, the Privacy Act exemption for reporting will continue to be in effect. Media organizations will also remain exempt from requirements to disclose personal information they hold about individuals, which could otherwise lead to complaints and harassment by the subjects of journalistic reports.Furthermore, the government has agreed in principle that data collection should be fair and reasonable and to expand the definition of personal information to include data such as cookie identifiers and IP addresses.Public response to both the Act and the official government response has been diverse.Notably, while praising the extra privacy protections offered to children, the Guardian called out the rejection of adults’ rights to opt of out of targeted advertising. The news outlet also voiced concerns about the government’s decision to decline a potential political exemption in the Privacy Act, which it believes would lead to misleading tactics by political parties and campaigns.IAPP, a global privacy community, noted that while the government is making strides in various areas, recommendations to amplify the protection of anonymized data weren’t approved. Nevertheless, there was an acknowledgment regarding the crucial role of fostering a privacy framework conducive to business growth, with clarity in terminologies like collection, disclosure, and consent.The Attorney-General will conduct an impact analysis and work with the community, businesses, media organizations and government agencies as it seeks to legislate changes in 2024.These further changes will complement other critical reforms by the Government, including Digital ID, the 2023-2030 Australian Cyber Security Strategy, the National Strategy for Identity Resilience and Supporting Responsible AI in Australia.

US credit card issuer applies for patent on ID service booster-Sep 29, 2023, 1:33 pm EDT-| Jim Nash

Mastercard has applied for a U.S. patent on ways to improve biometric identity resolution needed for mobile transactions. The transactions could be purchased or service enrollment.An ID services vendor is quoted doubting the uniqueness of Mastercard‘s idea, however. And the card issuer has already been expanding into digital ID services.Application 20230289419 describes math that would take video images captured by multiple reference and subject cameras, find the best image match from each of the two categories of cameras and normalize the images prior to verification.A transformation algorithm would be used to subtract signal noise and otherwise make a subject image more alike with reference images. That would improve ID verification. The process would also enable financial services companies to score the technical performance of the subject camera.Mastercard says in its application that, often, the subject camera is in an Apple iPhone and does not always produce a selfie of enough fidelity for ratcheting anti-fraud standards and needs.Of course, reference cameras are proliferating far beyond phones, and they could participate in transactions secured by Mastercard’s proposed method. Face-scanning kiosks and fingerprint scanners, for instance.A so-called biometric hub is part of the method in the application. It would coordinate functions between reference and subject cameras, and it could house data that is associated with previously normalized face scans for, indeed, reference.The hub also would perform the transformation/normalization and could use biometric templates in its work rather than images themselves.In an article by financial news publisher The Motley Fool and distributed by the Nasdaq, an executive with ID security firm Ping Identity said while useful, the method that Mastercard is seeking protection for is not new.Branden Williams, VP of ID access management, pointed out that his firm has a similar verification service as does identification security and transportability firm ID.me.

Shufti Pro reaches 1000 client milestone, upgrades AI accuracy-Sep 29, 2023, 10:26 am EDT-| Masha Borak

Identity verification provider Shufti Pro has had a busy week, rolling out new products, signing up new clients and marking new milestones.This week, the London-based firm announced that it had reached more than 1,000 clients, many of them hailing from fintech, banking, insurance, healthcare, government services, forex, gaming and real estate.Its latest client, announced this Thursday, is Aconomy, a decentralized exchange (DEX) for trading crypto assets owned by Singapore-based Pandora Finance. According to Shufti Pro CEO Victor Fredung, the company will help the Aconomy tackle fraud in the NFT economy with its identity verification solutions, including Know Your Customer (KYC) and anti-money laundering (AML).“With the increasing rate of fraud in the crypto industry, it’s essential for businesses to be equipped with a robust ID verification solution to safeguard their customers’ data,” Fredung said in an announcement. “Shufti Pro aims to assist blockchain businesses in strengthening their fight against ID frauds and collaboration with Aconomy was a significant step in this regard.”In March 2020, Shufti Pro raised US$20 million A series round led by Updata Partners to accelerate its global expansion. Many of its recent clients have been coming from the Middle East.During August and September, the company clinched deals with legal and business advisory firm Thinc, UAE-based investment management group Mascap, Qatari fintech CWallet and crowdfunding platform Bamburcorn based in Bahrain. The company has also landed fintech clients from other areas including Supercharge, Newton Global and Penning.Better algorithms, new products-Aside from new clients, the company announced a new milestone for its AI accuracy this week.Shufti Pro’s accuracy rate reaches up to 99.7 percent while its first-time-pass rate is up to 98.44 percent,  the company says in a release. Its user authentication is completed in under 30 seconds.To tackle online scammers using ID spoofing attempts, the firm also launched e-IDV (Electronic Identity Verification).The product means that its users will no longer be required to scan their ID documents. Instead, the platform will use government databases for cross-checking.“As the digital world evolves, scammers are finding new methods of bypassing conventional KYC and biometric checks,” says the company’s CEO. “Addressing these challenges and losses companies face due to scammers, we’ve developed the most advanced, powerful and secure IDV solution ever made, e-IDV.”The client enters their e-ID number provided by the government, while Shufti Pro’s algorithms perform face and liveness verification. The recorded data is cross-checked against a government and a private database. When the verification is completed, the user is given a unique ID number that they can use on cross-platforms.Shufti Pro claims that the authentication process can be completed in less than five seconds.The company also said it upgraded its biometric authentication. The new biometric authentication system is also designed to detect deep fakes, using machine learning (ML) for depth perception and identification of flat 2D images. The technology can identify 3D masking attempts through liveness detection.The technology uses a “three-layered model technology” to ensure accuracy and eliminate ID spoofing. In the first layer, Shufti Pro’s AI performs verification with an accuracy rate of up to 99.7 percent. The second layer is the human review in which reviewers evaluate each decision of the AI and remodel its algorithm for better accuracy. The final step is quality assurance.“We are now introducing the all-new biometric verification platform, equipped with depth-sensing technology that can now spot all kinds of deep fakes, masking and flat images with better accuracy than ever,” says Shufti Pro’s Fredung.Shufti Pro says it has so far successfully verified over 20 million identities worldwide.

Curaçao and US enlist biometrics for pre-flight digital IDs and streamlined border-crossing programs-Sep 28, 2023, 3:15 pm EDT    | Beverly Crawford-Westre

Crossing the border at Curaçao and the U.S. is about to get easier for some, thanks to biometric-backed digital ID programs.
Curaçao announces pre-flight digital ID verification-The government of Curaçao, in conjunction with Curaçao Airport Holding, has announced that it has selected Airside, a privacy-based digital identity-sharing provider, and Vision-Box, a biometric-based travel technology company, to create the world’s first mobile-based, pre-enrollment border crossing system.By connecting travelers and the government ahead of time, this innovation will allow travelers to deliver their verified information before they cross the border. The new process is poised to cut transaction times by more than half and increase traveler volume capacity while using biometrics for traveler data privacy.“This initiative demonstrates the dedication of Curaçao to adopting cutting-edge solutions to provide a secure and seamless experience for all travelers passing through our borders,” stated Curaçao’s Minister of Justice, Shalten Hato.“This collaboration between all stakeholders represents a significant advancement in the digital age of travel and innovative border control processes whereby a balance is realized between the country’s security and passenger’s privacy,” Priscilla Duin-Circkens, chief strategy officer at Curaçao Airport Holding, stated.Airside’s technology is trusted by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and the world’s largest airlines. It follows ISO/IEC 18013-5 and ICAO Digital Travel Credential (DTC) standards for airport security and border control pre-registration. The Airside app enables the traveler to initiate the verification and sharing of their electronic travel documents, including biographic and biometric data, allowing the country’s immigration services to use a risk-based approach to anticipate and determine physical border crossings, starting with departures by U.S., E.U., and Canadian passport holders.U.S. Customs and Border Protection announces new Global Entry mobile appThe U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has announced a new Global Entry mobile application that will enhance travel security and efficiency for the more than 12 million Global Entry members. The new app is now available for trusted travelers enrolled in Global Entry to complete their arrival processing instead of waiting in line to use a portal at the border.With the new app, travelers take a selfie, which will be compared to a photo gallery to verify their identity through facial biometrics. After the photo has been submitted, the traveler will receive a receipt on the app. Once the traveler arrives at the primary inspection area, they can bypass the Global Entry portals and go directly to the CBP officers to efficiently process their entry into the United States by showing their mobile receipt.The Global Entry mobile application will initially be available for use by travelers arriving at seven airports: Seattle Tacoma International, Los Angeles International, Miami International, Orlando International, Washington Dulles International, Pittsburgh International, and George Bush Intercontinental. CBP plans to evaluate and expand the use of the app at other airports.Global Entry is one of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Trusted Traveler Programs and is used at land, air and sea points of entry into the United States. All applicants undergo rigorous and recurring background checks and an in-person interview before initial enrollment. To maintain Global Entry members as low-risk travelers, any violation of the program’s terms and conditions will result in appropriate enforcement action and termination of the traveler’s membership privileges.The new mobile app is free and available for download from both Google Play and Apple app stores.

The challenges of biometric border crossings-Border Security Report webinar examines implications of EES-Sep 28, 2023, 1:20 pm EDT    | Masha Borak

The introduction of Entry-Exit Systems (EES) relying on biometric data collection on the United States and European Union borders will have wide-reaching effects on international travelers.A new webinar organized by the Border Security Report examined the implications of the new Entry-Exit System in these two regions, their similarities, and the lessons learned during their rollout.The U.S. has been trying to tackle the biometric exit mandate for years, struggling with challenges such as a lack of infrastructure, funding, resources, and sometimes stakeholder support, explains Jonathan Prescott, Program Manager of the Biometric Entry-Exit Strategic Transformation at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).The agency has traditionally relied on fingerprint capture. But after witnessing vulnerabilities such as faded fingerprints due to work or age or missing fingers, the CBP switched to facial biometrics.“This facial biometrics has allowed us to drastically increase our ability to detect imposters,” says Prescott.The U.S. now has biometric checkpoints at 48 airports. By August this year, the system had identified 1851 impostors and 275,371 overstays. Biometric match rates have been high with 99 percent on entry and 98 percent on exit. The US Customs and Border Protection has been using a NEC algorithm and has partnered with the National Institute of Science Standards and Technology (NIST) to enhance its comparison process.“To ensure high accuracy rates as well as efficient processing we use a small gallery to match. Since it’s a smaller data set, we were able to get a higher quality on our match rates,” says Prescott.Last week, the agency also launched a new Global Entry Mobile Application which enables travelers enrolled in Global Entry to complete their arrival processing by taking a selfie which is processed through facial biometrics.The new European Entry-Exit System may be even more impactful than the US one since it is often a transit destination for international journeys.Europe’s plan for EES is to combine biometric and biometric data into a central database which will help it keep track of overstays. One of the elements of this project is the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS).The EU-LISA project will have the task of introducing interoperability between different systems, including components such as the European search portal, shared biometric matching service, common identity repository and a multiple identity detector.“It will create a kind of backbone which connects all the system in a unique way and will make it much more easy and accessible for both the border guards and our authorized personnel to access data and cost check them to a search single search port,” says Luca Tagliaretti, Deputy Executive Director of EU-LISA.Mobile biometric identification and vehicle tracking could also be the EU’s alternative to reintroducing internal border controls, according to the European border agency Frontex.Countries on the continent, however, are still facing multiple challenges. Estonia is one of the countries that is trying to introduce the Entry-Exit System by equipping its border checks with biometric enrollment equipment while trying to keep visa processing time from increasing.“What we learned first is that face enrollment is much more complicated than expected,” says Rein Syld, Program Manager at the Information Technology and Development Center under the Estonian Ministry of the Interior.The country has been introducing mobile solutions at border crossings, including a tablet equipped with a fingerprint reader and document reader. Estonian border authorities, however, have struggled to find a tablet on the market with good enough cameras to capture faces that are compliant with ISO standards. and ended up working with the private sector to develop an app that is compliant with their requirements.Border crossings also need to think of whether their facilities are large enough to host self-registration terminals and even replace their lighting to ensure there are no shadows cast on the faces during biometric enrollment. The most challenging scenario has been outdoor environments on land and sea border checkpoints. Rain and snow have sometimes prevented capturing faces altogether, explains Syld.But border crossings are also facing other challenges, such as capturing biometric data from children.“If you were matching a three-year-old child with a passport with its picture as a newborn, there is probably going to be a failure from certain systems,” he says.

Worldcoin registers 200,000 Chileans in LATAM market push-Sep 28, 2023, 12:23 pm EDT-| Joel R. McConvey

Worldcoin’s pitch for a global currency and digital identity system has arrived in Chile, after facing roadblocks and government censure in Kenya for failing to properly register its biometric data collection activities there.A Worldcoin release says more than 200,000 people, which accounts for more than one percent of Chile’s total population, have enrolled for free crypto tokens and a World ID digital credential by having their irises scanned with the spherical capture device called the Orb to attain proof-of-personhood. Three Chilean municipalities are currently hosting Worldcoin and its parent company, Tools for Humanity: the coastal cities of Concepción and Viña del Mar, and the capital, Santiago.People in Chile “are much more sensitive and much more understanding of the fundamental principles of crypto,” says Tools for Humanity’s CEO, Alex Blania. “It’s a combination of having a very technologically advanced country in general and then also a crypto-forward country specifically, which makes it an explosive building ground for the next wave of innovation in this space.”As the Worldcoin team scales up across the globe, adding to the more than two million users that have already registered their iris scans for a digital ID, they find themselves a little lacking in the orbs department. To respond to unexpected demand, they have had to ramp up manufacturing and distribution operations of the devices, and are recruiting students in markets with universities to help spread adoption.Blania has underlined the need for governments to fast-track regulations, to allow innovations like Worldcoin to flourish. However, the Sam Altman-founded firm’s disregard for regulations is part of what led to the Kenyan government suspending Worldcoin’s business activities in Kenya, confiscating a number of orbs as well as documents and computers, and calling the company a gang of criminals.Nor is Kenya the only nation that has cast a wary eye at Worldcoin’s biometric data capture spree. Regulators from the UK, France, Germany, Kenya, Mexico and India have all scrutinized the iris scanning program and its associated cryptocurrency (WLD).WLD tokens, which are being given away for free to anyone who registers for World ID, suffered a blow in value early in September, but have rebounded over the past two weeks.

A bidding process has been opened for the supply of 6,000 biometric registration kits as Lot 1 for Ethiopia’s National ID Program (NIDP) implementation.According to a tender announcement, the bidding process, which is to be done via the Ethiopian Bankers Association, opens on September 28 and closes on November 10 at 2:00 pm, local time.Interested eligible bidders have been told to purchase the complete set of bidding documents upon the submission of a handwritten application, and to obtain useful information from the physical office of the Ethiopian Bankers Association in Addis Ababa or via an email provided for that purpose.Bidders are also expected to pay a non-refundable fee of 1,000 Ethiopian birr (US$18), and a deposit of $450,000 which shall be returnable once the bid results have been announced to all bidders.Bid results will be unveiled at 2:30pm on November 10 in the presence of representatives of bidding companies who choose to attend in person, the announcement notes.The rollout of Ethiopia’s digital ID has been gaining steam in the last couple of months.Last month, Indian company Madras Security Printing won a bid to print one million digital ID cards for the North African country in a contract worth $300,000.The NIDP also singed a partnership this month with the Ethiopian federal civil service commission to make digital ID the main credential for civil servants, months after it said it was making the ID also mandatory for banking operations.

Does US privacy regulation trump a state’s biometrics law? Supreme Court to decide-Sep 29, 2023, 6:51 am EDT-| Jim Nash

The U.S. state of Illinois’ Supreme Court is hearing another biometric privacy case, this one brought by health care workers who feel their employers forced them to use fingerprint sensors without consent.The plaintiffs, who have worked for two Chicago-area hospitals, say that the state’s Biometric Information Privacy Act protects them from being forced to submit their biometric data the same as any private-sector employees in the state are protected.The defendants include University of Chicago’s Ingalls Memorial Hospital, Northwestern Memorial Healthcare and medical device maker Becton, Dickinson.They claim that they are not covered by BIPA because the law exempts health care workers. In this case, employees were required to use fingerprints to access automatic medicine-dispensing cabinets.Lawmakers crafting BIPA created protection exclusions for some classes of biometric data, including data related to the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. HIPPA is one of the very few U.S. laws protecting a broad and vital vein of information, a person’s health data.The question is, does HIPPA allow a health care company to require employees’ fingerprints because doing so falls under the BIPA exclusion for health care data involved in treatment, payment or operations? The plaintiffs say HIPPA protects patient data and health care workers as a class were not explicitly mentioned as being exempted from protection under BIPA. They argue that according to the defense’s logic, a hospital garage fee taker cannot be protected at work by BIPA, according to coverage by trade publication Law360.

Report proposes holistic, responsible approach to biometrics deployment in humanitarian contexts-Sep 29, 2023, 6:47 am EDT    | Ayang Macdonald

Results of a study carried out between February 2022 and June 2023 have highlighted that the use of biometrics in humanitarian programming must be done in a holistic and responsible manner, taking into account the inherent risks of collecting biometric data from vulnerable populations.Conducted by The Engine Room, a non-profit organization rooting for the safe use of technology and data, the study delves into the risks and benefits of biometrics in the humanitarian sector as well as organizational policies related thereto.It notes, among other things, that the harms involved in the practice must be assessed holistically including issues such as function creep. Function creep is a situation whereby information is used for a purpose different from what it was initially intended for.According to the research, for biometrics use in such settings to make more meaning, there is need to establish the full evidence of its benefits to the target population. This means “a deeper investigation into the potential benefits of biometric technology,” the report indicates.Among other problems identified during the study, the researchers note the lack of coherence in the approach to deploying biometrics across humanitarian sectors, the poor implementation of policies guiding the process, prevalence of technical literacy among the key decision makers which inhibits proper decision making, as well as the fact that donors fail to provide full support to ensure the safe and responsible use of the biometric systems they fund.For things to change for the better, the study proposes a couple of things that must be considered by different stakeholders involved in biometrics for the humanitarian sector, following up on recommendations made after a similar study by The Engine Room back in 2018.“Our research showed a clear need to develop a more coherent and responsible approach to the use of biometrics in the sector, and that in order for humanitarian organizations to uphold their commitment and responsibility to impacted communities, it is vital that a shared standard is established in the sector,” reads part of the executive summary.Per the study, deploying biometrics in the a more responsible and less harmful manner for humanitarian activities would require five things: the continued interrogation of the necessity of biometrics in the first place, a more nuanced policy design and implementation, the need to put in place a community-based standard of practice, strengthening efforts on data protection impact assessments, and ensuring a more thorough and ecosystem-wide appraisal of the technologies used in the sector.The use of biometrics in the humanitarian sector has always been greeted with mixed reactions. However, sector players like the International Organization for Migration believe the technology can help streamline humanitarian response efforts as seen in places like South Sudan, a country struggling with thousands of forcibly displaced persons.

Denmark’s digital ID soon to be valid in neighboring countries-Sep 29, 2023, 6:04 am EDT-| Joel R. McConvey

Danes living in other Nordic or Baltic countries could soon be able to use their national digital ID as valid identification, according to a report in The Local.Denmarks’ MitID digital identity system is used to access public services and some commercial applications. The decision by the Nordic Council of Ministers means Danes will be able to use their MitID to sign in to services requiring a digital identity in Norway, Sweden, and other Nordic and Baltic nations. MitID is typically used through an app, which requires verification through a PIN or fingerprint biometrics.The system is to be made possible by a mandate to develop identity matching among the nations, so that digital identity can be measured against personal registries and other government databases.A statement from Denmark’s minister for digitization, Marie Bjerre, says that “cooperation with the Nordic and Baltic countries show the rest of Europe how we can use digital solutions in practice across national borders, for the benefit of all of us.”With 99 percent of its population signed up for the MitID digital identity since it launched in 2021,

Denmark has emerged as a model for nations hoping for widespread digital ID adoption.All of Universal’s Orlando theme parks to get facial recognition upgrade-Sep 29, 2023, 6:19 am EDT-| Joel R. McConvey-

Facial recognition is about to get totally epic – or, rather, Epic is about to get facial recognition. Epic Universe, the new Universal theme park scheduled to open in Orlando, Florida in mid-2025, will use a patented biometric facial recognition tool at its entry gates, according to reports from Orlando ParkStop and the Hollywood Reporter.Nor will face biometrics be exclusive to the new park, as was previously reported. What Universal executives are calling a “facial recognition/photo validation” process for frictionless entry will be deployed in Universal’s existing theme parks, including its flagship, Universal Studios.According to ParkStop, Universal has patented a system for capturing a guest’s photo on entry, then using face scanners across the park to moderate or customize their experience based on paired biometric ID credentials. Data is erased when the guest leaves the park. Diagrams included in the patent show potential activations and operational flow charts for attaching face images that are registered in databases to specific areas in the park.It is this system that observers believe will be deployed at Epic Universe as “Photo Validation” – in part to distance it from stigmas attached to “facial recognition.”Biometrics could unlock open hub concept-Mark Woodbury, CEO of Universal Epic Destinations & Experiences, says the new park is the company’s most technologically advanced across the entire guest experience. Centred around a landscaped hub, Epic Universe’s four themed lands will deploy advanced robotics and drone tech to showcase what Woodbury calls “powerful, trip-driving intellectual property.”There are rumours that the central hub area may be free, and that only the themed lands will require ticketed entry. To illustrate how this system might make use of facial recognition, ParkStop references the only themed world that has been made public so far, in suggesting that long lines to access Super Nintendo World could be alleviated by installing facial recognition scanners at the warp pipe themed entry.Diagrams in a recent permit filing also suggest the placement of overhead sensors in the park, which could also be used for access control.
