Tuesday 28th February 2012
13.00pm – 17.30pm
Sheraton Hotel, Sofia, Bulgaria
Border Security & Docex:
Controlling The Manipulation
Of Identity
Workshop leaders: Jerry Hart, Global Security Risk
Analyst, SGS Group & Gareth Evans, UK Police Service
In association with
UK Police
Service
Overview of workshop
One of the main challenges for any security risk
environment is how to discourage or stop intruders while
facilitating legitimate access. This is particularly crucial in
the border environment, where unauthorised access
threatens not only the security of one nation and its
citizens, but also those of neighbouring and final
destination countries.
All too often, the key to illegitimate access is
documentation that is either false, has been obtained
using false information or has otherwise exploited
vulnerabilities in the document procurement or validation
processes. New technologies strive to minimise the risk
and maintain cost-effectiveness, yet sophisticated and
determined attacks persist.
Drawing on a range of real case studies, this half-day
interactive workshop will conduct an in-depth and
compelling exploration of DocEx (document exploitation)
issues including:
• What is the difference between fake and fraudulently
obtained documentation?
• Who is likely to use it and how and from where do they
obtain it?
• What is the true extent of the risks and threats involved?
• What are the strengths & weaknesses of current legal &
procedural countermeasures?
• What can be done to better secure borders from identity-
related threats?
Why you should attend
The workshop will be invaluable to law enforcement,
intelligence & border security practitioners, identity
authentication & verification professionals and anyone
else with an interest in this crucial aspect of border
security.
