World e-ID is an international conference covering both e-ID Government programs from across the globe and latest advances of e-ID technologies' applications.
As a part of Smart Event 2011, World e-ID'11 will take place in Sophia Antipolis nearby Nice, in one of the most delightful area of Southern Europe. Your participation in World e-ID 2011 will be an ideal opportunity to share visions, see new perspectives and opportunities concerning your own e-ID projects. Expand your network within the IT security community and connect to all relevant stakeholders, such as government experts, industry representatives and consultants.

SCOPE
The next generation of e-ID management technologies and services, e-ID documents, biometric systems and digital data management are globally on the roadmap of the public and enterprise sectors.
One illustrative example: more than 90 countries have started issuing electronic travel documents, representing approximately four billion citizens! The 3rd generation travel documents are defined (PACE-protocol). Deadline for EU-Member States is defined for Dec. 2014.
However many issues remain open:
- At the end of 2011, 15 European states will have e-ID/eGov projects on national level in use. The European Large-Scale Pilots (LSPs) STORK and epSOS which aim at interoperability of cross-border services are currently in their pilot phases. STORK would end mid 2011. epSOS would be extended. Is Europe on the highway to an European e-Identity?
- Japan has started the biggest single program in eGov/eService domain worldwide with the e P.O.-box and the social security card project. These two projects address a population of 130 million citizens. Roll out is expected for 2013.
- EU deadline for e-ResidencePermit is defined for May, 2011.
- A new amendment (3rd directive) on e-Driving License is expected by beginning of 2011. First tender on eDriving License in Europe are expected for 2011.
- India (UIDAI) and Brazil (RIC) are assigning Unique IDs (UIDs) for their nationals as a basis for nation-wide harmonized registration programs for citizens. India change from 2 fingerprints to 10 fingerprints (templates) stored on card. Combined with these large programs, are electronic ID cards being specified?
- More and more non-government eID programs come down the road to foster eGov-Services Programs with secure token, e.g. Norway with BUYPASS and Switzerland with SwissID. Is this a new business model?
In the private sector, access control systems based on e-ID technologies are spreading. Logical and physical access control in the enterprise domain shows mainly hybrid cards. The logical access to network is typically a PKI-approach with contact-based microcontroller and the physical access e.g. for build access works as contactless memory. What should be the next evolution step in the high security enterprise domain?


TheWorld e-ID Program Committee is inviting proposals for presentations from Government as well as Private sector e-ID strategy and projects planners, system developers, implementers, managers and industry leaders, e-service providers and others with extensive relevant experiences and insight.

Conference sessions will include:
- new application standards and new technologies
- identification of new programs on national and international level
- lessons learned from implementations and projects running
- Sustainability of EU-funded projects
Note this edition will feature a special session on Africa and Middle-East.
