Definitions

  • the invention describes a method for checking the authenticity of a user's document, the document having a security feature.
  • a personal presence of the institution which is represented by an employee, and the customer can be assumed if the institution involved in an identification procedure and the customer involved are not physically perceptible, but are visually perceptible in the context of a video transmission and at the same time a verbal contact is made between the institute and the customer is possible and in this context a verification of the identity of the customer can be carried out using an identification document.
  • a customer can open a new account with a bank by identifying himself online with a service provider using his ID card.
  • the service provider can be an external service provider or, for example, an internal department of a bank or insurance company.
  • security features such as a hologram on the customer's ID card being checked in addition to checking the customer's face.
  • the security feature can also be checked automatically, as is the case, for example, for holograms in the DE 298 19 954 U1 is described.
  • Corresponding service providers already exist and some banks have already declared that they want to use this method. A similar test is according to the preamble of claim 1 in WO 2012/083469 A1 disclosed.
  • An electronic visual channel is, for example, when an image of a security feature is taken by a camera and the image is transmitted via, e.g. the Internet, to a recipient, e.g. a bank, which verifies the authenticity of the security feature, and is displayed on a screen of a service provider.
  • a presentation by Graz University of Technology can be found on the internet, in which a check of holograms on a banknote using a smartphone is described.
  • checking holographic features via a visual channel has the disadvantage that counterfeits can easily be procured over the Internet and smuggled into the check.
  • Reliable verification of the authenticity of a security feature, such as a hologram, on a document such as an ID card, driver's license, insurance card, credit card, bank card, etc., using the procedure described in the above-mentioned circular for the service provider remains problematic, especially if no technical aids are used available for verification of authenticity.
  • Optical security features on e.g. ID documents or smart cards were primarily developed for verification or testing by people on site.
  • the examiner can take the ID document in their own hands and move it according to the light conditions to detect a forgery.
  • the tactile component also plays an important role. For example, glued-in photos or a changed or counterfeit lamination can be easily recognized.
  • the transmission quality is significantly poorer and manipulations are more easily possible. For example, there is the possibility of manipulation that digital images are digitally altered before transmission on an attacker's computer or that an ID card itself is forged.
  • the reading device eg a PC or a laptop with a webcam, is under the control of a user and consequently a possible attacker.
  • the invention discloses a method for checking the authenticity of a document from a user, the document having a security feature which is characterized in that the security feature changes its color when stimulated by light of a specific wavelength and changes its original color after the stimulation accepts again, at least one image of the security feature being recorded by means of a camera and the image being transmitted to a service provider for checking the authenticity of the security feature.
  • An advantage of the invention is that the security feature is excited by means of light originating from a user's monitor, the monitor emitting light of a specific wavelength onto the security feature so that the security feature changes its color.
  • a further advantage of the invention is that the service provider generates and transmits a signal to the monitor, the signal containing information about which wavelength is emitted by the user's monitor.
  • a further advantageous exemplary embodiment is that the service provider generates a pattern to be displayed on the user's monitor and transmits it to the monitor, so that the security feature displays the pattern after being stimulated until the security feature has assumed its original color again.
  • a further advantageous exemplary embodiment is that a photochromic dye or a pigment is used for the security feature.
  • a further advantage of the invention is that bacteriorhodopsin is used as the material for the security feature.
  • figure 1 shows different states of bacteriorhodopsin.
  • the U-Nica company has developed a photochromic paint containing bacteriorhodopsin. After absorption of a photon, bacteriorhodopsin undergoes a so-called photocycle in which its color changes reversibly, ie the color changes after excitation by absorption of a photon, with an original color of a ground state being assumed again after excitation.
  • the ground state of bacteriorhodopsin with an absorption maximum at 570 nm appears purple and changes after exposure to a state M with an absorption maximum at 410 nm, in state M bacteriorhodopsin appears yellow.
  • the system relaxes, ie returns to the ground state by itself or returns to the ground state more quickly by exposure to blue light at 410 nm, as shown in figure 1 is shown.
  • Natural variants or variants of bacteriorhodopsin produced by means of genetic engineering or biotechnology are known which also have other absorption maxima in the respective states, which therefore also have other colors in the states and therefore have other color change combinations.
  • the photochemical properties of bacteriorhodopsin can also be changed by the surrounding environment, in particular by a pH value and an ionic concentration.
  • Color and color change properties can also be advantageously altered by the combination of bacteriorhodopsin variants and environment.
  • the blue light can be achieved either by a blue light source, e.g. a laser with approx. 410 nm, or by a white light source with a filter, so that blue light is preferably radiated onto the bacteriorhodopsin element.
  • a blue light source e.g. a laser with approx. 410 nm
  • a white light source with a filter
  • this filter can also be placed in the form of a mask between the light source and the bacteriorhodopsin element.
  • FIG 2 shows how a document 4 with a security feature according to the invention, which contains a feature substance such as bacteriorhodopsin, is placed on a monitor 2 of a user.
  • the security feature is applied to the surface of the document 4 .
  • the user's monitor 2 is connected to a computer.
  • the user's computer is also connected to a service provider's computer by means of a transmission network, eg the Internet, with the service provider controlling the verification of the security feature.
  • bacteriorhodopsin has two monostable states. It can therefore be used for a challenge-response method between the user and the service provider in order to check the authenticity of a security feature on the document 4.
  • bacteriorhodopsin is incorporated as a security feature into the document to be authenticated or checked, e.g Chip card, identity card, credit card, social security card, bank card, driver's license, etc. introduced over a large area, as in the Figures 2 to 4 is shown.
  • FIG 2 the situation is shown when the document 4 is placed on the monitor 2 of the user.
  • the security feature is on the side of the document 4 that faces the monitor 2 .
  • the document 4 with a security feature is held directly on the user's monitor 2, for example, the monitor 2 being a display of a smartphone or a computer screen, for example.
  • figure 3 shows how a pattern 6, e.g. a symbol, letter, number, character, word, picture, figure, is displayed on the monitor 2, the pattern 6 being unknown to the user, the security feature corresponding to the shape of the pattern 6, eg in the form of a symbol, is stimulated to change colour.
  • a pattern 6 e.g. a symbol, letter, number, character, word, picture, figure
  • the service provider To check the authenticity of the security feature, the service provider generates any pattern 6, here e.g. 3p5, and transmits it to the user's monitor 2 and displays it on monitor 2.
  • the pattern 6 is a random, pseudo-random illumination pattern that excites a feature substance, e.g., bacteriorhodopsin, of the security feature located on the document 4 to cause a color change.
  • figure 4 shows how a camera 10 takes an image of the security feature, the security feature in the form of a pattern 8 having changed its color due to the excitation by the monitor 2, the pattern 8 corresponding to the shape of the pattern 6 which is displayed by the monitor 2 , wherein the image of the pattern 8 is transmitted to a service provider for authentication.
  • a webcam for example, such as is arranged on a monitor 2, can be used as the camera. It should be noted here that pattern 8 is shown as a mirror image of pattern 6.
  • the service provider checks the pattern 8 for a match with the pattern 6, which was sent to the user's monitor 2 to stimulate the security feature, in particular the feature substance, e.g. bacteriorhodopsin.
  • the method according to the invention can also be protected against internal attackers, such as a corrupt operator of the service provider, in that the pattern 6 is generated by a program so that the operator has no knowledge of and no influence on the method according to the invention for checking the authenticity of the security feature.
  • the pattern 8 that is returned is evaluated by an automatic image processing system of the service provider and automatically compared to match the pattern 6 that was transmitted to the user's monitor 2 for the purpose of stimulation.
  • photochromic dyes or pigments can also be used, such as retinal proteins, proteorhodopsin or generally photochromic substances or mixtures thereof.
  • bacteriorhodopsin can be used for a photochromic security feature.
  • the effect is basically stable and reversible. It is also known that pattern recognition by camera is not a problem.
  • the reset time of the pattern 8 is also recorded by the camera 10, since only the generation of a pattern 8, ie an excitation of the Security feature for a color change, a vulnerability can mean.
  • a light-sensitive sensor or a camera 10 could be provided, whereby the pattern 8 could be recorded in a very short time and then transferred to a suitable surface. Since there must be a certain amount of time for holding to the monitor 2 and a time tolerance for switching to the camera 10, fraud would be possible, at least in theory.
  • bacteriorhodopsin offers the possibility of setting the return time to the basic state in a largely defined manner. Ideally, one would even apply two bacteriorhodopsin types to the document 4 at different times. The camera 10 could then use the change in the pattern 8 over time to identify whether it is just a quickly created copy of the pattern 8 or whether this is actually imaged on the original bacteriorhodopsin surface.
