Description[ ]
As part of the digitilisation of Antigua and Barbuda, HID Global deployed HID Intergrale for civil registration and vital statistics. The system allows the records of births and deaths to be linked up and for identity verification to be carried out by the state. Although it is not stated whether in this case biometrics are in use, HID Intergrale supports the use of biometrics for identity management, it can be easily added on to the system and may become a constitutive feature of it. The 'solution' is also designed to appeal to United Nations programmes which often require biometric registration.
The Government of Antigua and Barbuda (GOAB), the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting, Telecommunications and Information Technology (MIBTIT), the Office of the Attorney General, the Ministry of Legal Affairs, Public Safety and Labour, and local integrator Antigua Computer Technology (ACT) partnered with HID Global to deliver a complete civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) solution for all life events, such as births and marriages. The solution integrates data from legacy systems, links identities among families for stronger authentication, and features a web portal that triggers procedures for in-person follow-up when additional registration data is needed. The solution was also configured to enable 26 stakeholder organizations, such as the High Court, church councils, and Banking Association, to securely verify identities for a host of use-case applications
HID Integrale for CRVS also provides Antigua and Barbuda with a solid and secure identity foundation that offers benefits beyond accurate citizen identity data. The solution can be leveraged to generate reports and vital statistics that will enable participation in programs and assistance provided by the United Nations and other international organizations. “Antigua and Barbuda’s transformative civil registry deployment is a significant first step in its journey to become a digital society,” said Craig Sandness, Senior Vice President and Head of Secure Issuance and Citizen ID Solutions, HID Global. “Government officials and stakeholders are now strongly positioned to meet future identity challenges and expand their innovative civil registry ecosystem with our HID Integrale for CRVS solution.”
