Digitally bundling information for a quick ID check

High passenger volumes mean that queues at border controls around the world are getting longer and longer. We therefore asked ourselves how we could make the inspection process for border police clearer and faster. Our approach to solving this problem is called secunet bocoa: With this border control application, we clearly summarize all results of the optical and electronic document check on a single screen.

All benefits of bocoa at a glance

Clear

With bocoa, all necessary data during document control can be displayed on one screen. If an identity document is faulty or deviates, the application flags this in the colors of the traffic light system.

Full coverage

secunet bocoa supports all modern inspection systems and devices for capturing biometric data. The application provides officials with all the relevant data they need for an inspection.

Efficient

Due to its time-saving, intuitive handling and the bundling of different devices and (background) systems, bocoa increases the efficiency of control processes.

Flexible

secunet bocoa is available for both stationary and mobile document inspection and traveller identification.

Sustainable

bocoa complies with all the relevant standards and guidelines such as BSI TR-03135. In addition, the entire secunet border control product portfolio is optimally prepared for the requirements of future border control processes such as the Entry/Exit System (EES).

Easy to use

For mobile checks, the border control officer only needs what he probably has in his pocket anyway: a standard smartphone. Without further special technical equipment, which can quickly become heavy and expensive.

"The modern design of the system interface with its logical, process-oriented approach to user control is an impressive and motivating tool for the employees of the Zurich Airport Border Control."

Head of Project Greko NG in the Zurich Cantonal Police, Airport Staff Branch
