The Ministry of Public Security piloted an online copy of the ID card to verify personal identity by brushing your face.

  Xiamen, China, September 26 (Reporter Ma Ning Zhuang Shengchun) According to the Voice of China, it is worrying to forget to bring your ID card when you are on a business trip or traveling. Even if you reissue your temporary ID card at the railway station and airport to get on the transportation, you may still need the original ID card if you want to stay in a hotel. Moreover, not only travel, accreditation, exams and other things require us to show the original ID card. If we forget to carry something small and lose something big, once we lose our ID card, it will provide an opportunity for criminals.

  A few days ago, the First Research Institute of the Ministry of Public Security released a message at the 2016 National Cyber Security Publicity Week, saying that the network trusted identity authentication service platform they developed will soon be put into pilot projects in many places. Through this platform, everyone can generate an "online copy of ID card" with a unique number for life on the Internet, which can be read and used by technical means such as "brushing face". In the future, if you want to prove "I am who I am", just "brush your face".

  In fact, as early as the middle of this year, Xiamen has launched a pilot project as the first city in China to apply online resident ID cards. So the question is, how to have such an online copy first?

  In some service centers and convenience places in Xiamen, there are self-service machines. As long as you take your ID card and scan it, it will record the portrait from up to down after it shows the information. If you set a password yourself, the online copy of your ID card will be established, and the copy can be used in many aspects.

  Technical supporter of the project — — Chen Ying, general manager of Xiamen Information Group Digital Certificate Management Co., Ltd., said that the main progress of the pilot work includes government applications, applications involving people’s livelihood and commercial applications, with hotels making more progress. In the pilot hotel, you can brush your face at the self-service machine, spit out your room card and you can go directly into the room. But because this has nothing to do with the current public security management measures — — There is a conflict in the requirement of face-to-face signing, so now the idea of the public security department is to pilot it first. One is to try technology, and the other is to try how to reconcile the conflict with existing regulations.

  On the technical level, some people have doubts about face recognition. For example, "With a human skin mask, can you pretend to be Ma Yun and Li Ka-shing? Every time the makeup is different, can you still identify it well? Plastic surgery, what should I do? Find a photo and shake it at the camera. Can you support it? I was secretly recorded, will my account be stolen? What if they are twins or look alike? " Shen Qiajin, an insider and CEO of Shenzhen Chuangxiang Yideng Technology Co., Ltd., believes that the accuracy of face recognition technology is very high, and there is a live detection technology. "I don’t know how other companies do it, but our company’s approach is to solve it in two dimensions. The first one is to detect some movements of the face. You may blink, and there will still be some changes in the muscles of the face, because your skin mask is particularly thick. Your facial movements cannot be as natural as the face, and even he has no facial movements. What if it is a video? Then what we do is to monitor the difference between the video image signal and my own image signal on the server. Mainly through reflection … … Whether it can be guaranteed to be foolproof, we dare not make this guarantee, because at present such a thing has not been used on a large scale. "

  Chen Ying, the technical supporter of the project, also introduced that in the future, this "online copy of ID card" will have different application modes in different life scenes — — Just enter the password in the scene with low risk, and biometric methods such as "face recognition" will be used in the scene with high security; Even our mobile phone can become an electronic ID card through short-range wireless communication technology in the future. "On the one hand, there is an authoritative app on the mobile phone, which can turn the mobile phone into an ID card. There are also some scenes where the mobile phone can be turned into a card reader. It turns out that many law enforcement terminals must be equipped with ID card readers. Now, through the nfc terminal of the mobile phone, ID card information can also be read out. "
