INDUSTRY WATCH technology on the most important air bridge in the country and we have no doubt that other airports will also adopt it .”
Caio Mario Paes de Andrade , Special Secretary for Debureaucratization , Management and Digital Government at the Ministry of Economy , highlights the agility , ease and security provided to the population by the Digital Transformation of the Brazilian government .
each passenger that complies with the General Data Protection Law ( LGPD ), which aims at security in the treatment of data against misuse or unauthorized use . “ This way , the passenger can travel with more comfort and tranquility ,” concluded Barreto .
Brigadeiro Paes de Barros , President of Infraero , proudly celebrates that Brazil is the first country to have 100 % digital boarding on an air bridge .
“ It has been a revolution in aspects of culture and behavior very well assimilated by the population ,” he said . The government platform , GOV . BR , already reached 123 million users against 1.8 million from when we started in January 2019 .
“ A proof of the Brazilian digital evolution is that now , in seconds , the identity of passengers is confirmed , making their experience at airports much faster and more comfortable .”
GOV . BR is a platform of the Brazilian government to facilitate the relationship with citizens , which now has 4,900 services , 73 % of which are fully digitized .
For Gileno Barreto , President of Serpro , the cooperation agreement is an important step to making biometric boarding a reality at Brazilian airports .
“ We are one step away from placing Brazil at the forefront of the airline industry . The technology , which combines data analysis and validation by biometrics , has been extensively tested and will ensure an innovative experience for all Brazilians ,” said Barreto .
Barreto also emphasized that Embarque + Seguro allows a precise , agile and secure verification of
“ Embarque + Seguro is becoming a reality after much testing and commitment from the parties involved . We continue to prioritize safety and agility in airport processes ,” he said .
“ In a unique and perhaps unprecedented way , we are uniting security and facilities which naturally veer to opposite sides . Embarque + Seguro will break this paradigm . We will have more facilities with much more security .”
How it works
For passengers , the procedure begins at check-in . Using their data , CPF ( Brazilian Individual Taxpayer Registration ) and a photo of the traveler , the airline attendant uses the application developed by Serpro to perform the biometric validation of the citizen , comparing the data and the photo taken at the time with the government databases .
Once validated , the passenger is free to access the boarding lounge and the aircraft , passing through the biometric control points that carry out the identification and validation through cameras without the traveler having to show an identification document and boarding pass . Embarque + Seguro guarantees the total protection of user data .
For crew members , when accessing the Restricted Security Area , a biometric reading device collects their facial reading and confirms the biometric parameters against the CHT Digital database , an initiative of Anac , confirming that the individual is a civil aviation crew member and the validity of the document .
BRAZIL WILL BE A SHOWCASE FOR THE WORLD WITH BIOMETRIC BOARDING . WE ARE EXCITED TO USE THIS TECHNOLOGY .
If acceptable , the professional will have access released without the need to present documents , avoiding contact between him and the document access control agent via a touchless procedure .
If not , the crew member ’ s CHT and the air operator ’ s identification document can be manually verified and validated . The access control procedure , through facial biometrics , does not exempt the crew member from undergoing an airport security inspection . p
