TSA and DHS Want Your Selfie: The Move Toward Biometric IDs for Travel | HackerNoon
Briefly

The Remote Identity Validation Technology Demonstration (RIVTD) program, launched by the DHS, TSA and NIST, aims to evaluate the efficacy of biometric ID systems in real-time.
Track 1 focused on assessing the validity of identity documents, while Track 2 matched selfie photos to these documents, and Track 3 assesses the 'liveness' of selfies.
An objective is to detect attempts to manipulate live selfies with paper, digital photographs, or masks, ensuring the authenticity of identity verification.
The RIVTD program will inform standardization efforts and help develop technologies against sophisticated and evolving biometric attacks in both commercial and government sectors.
