New technologies present new opportunities for interaction with state agencies at the local and republic level on the part of individuals and companies. A range of different services enabling at least partially automated remote transactions between the public and state agencies is called e-Government or electronic administration.
The telecommunication networks used for conducting such transactions must by their na-ture be digital and public, so that electronic government services can be made available to the entire population of the country. In practice, Internet technology is the most commonly used, as well as fixed and mobile telephony. Using the Internet, citizens have access to a government site, an e-Government portal, where they can find all the information they need, and can also open and fill in forms as necessary.
In a broader sense, e-Government includes all electronic transactions conducted by local or national government. Accordingly, this service also involves all transactions between minis-tries, government agencies and local services.
Transmitted information must be protected from third parties, and the identity and authori-sation of transaction participants must be determined. This is made possible using crypto-graphic protection of message contents, for example filled-in forms, as well as by use of a digital signature which is verified for validity. Digital signatures are an improved and secure replacement for signatures on paper, which ensure the identity and intent of a remote sig-natory, as well as the authenticity of the signed content.
This is achieved by allocating digital certificates along with pairs of cryptographic keys to individuals and employees in state institutions simultaneously with the issue of ID cards to citizens and official ID cards to government employees.
ID cards and employee cards contain a chip bearing a private key. A digital signature repre-sents a result of the mathematical operation performed between the private key and part of the document being signed. The recipient of the digitally signed document can verify the signature and open the content using the sender’s public key, which is produced in a pair together with the private key. The public key of the sender is needed in order to decipher his or her messages and verify his or her identity, but it cannot be misused to falsify a signa-ture, since the private key is hidden in the chip.
INTEGRATION OF DIFFERENT IT SYSTEMS INTO E-GOVERNMENT SOLUTIONS
15
Vlatacom / Annual catalogue 2010
16
Vlatacom provides a solution whereby different government information centres can be con-nected via one unique portal, a “one stop shop” which citizens, companies and government employees can access using personal and official ID cards equipped with a chip.
Vlatacom’s centralised service solution includes:
• User identification management using digital certificates
• Verification of digital signature (authentication and authorisation)
• Encryption of data transmission
• Automatic workflows for forwarding requests to different services
• Electronic forms
• Interconnection of different databases
Citizens can access the e-Government portal to order copies of birth, marriage and citizen-ship certificates, view their tax and medical records, carry out vehicle registration and find information on and register for various services.
Government employees can use the portal to access applications that they use at their place of work. For example, customs officers can access applications for collection of customs du-ties, office workers can use it to process ID card applications, to collect citizens’ personal details etc.
Secure communication and authentication is enabled by the Public Key Infrastructure – PKI.
All citizens and employees must use their ID cards to authenticate their access to the portal. The user identification management system enables access to specific data and applica-tions for those persons who have permission to do so. All communication within the system is encrypted.

PUBLIC KEY INFRASTRUCTURES
Public key infrastructures support the use of applications that encrypt data and those that
use digital signatures. Public key infrastructures are based on the principles of public key
cryptography.
Encryption of information in such a system is performed by using two mathematically relat-
ed keys, one of which is kept private, the other made public. The private key cannot be de-
termined from the public key. For example, an individual who wants to send a message uses
the public key of the recipient to encrypt the message. The recipient uses his or her private
key to decrypt the message. The sender therefore knows that only the intended recipient
can read the message. Public key cryptography can also be used to create digital signa-
tures.
A digital signature is created by the use of a mathematical function which produces a value
which is dependent on the content of a message. This is then attached to the message and
encrypted using the sender’s private key. The recipient of the message can decrypt the dig-
ital signature using the sender’s public key. The recipient then subjects the message to the
same mathematical function to produce a second summary of the message.
If the digital signature can be decrypted and the two summaries are identical, then the re-
cipient is assured of both the sender’s identity and the integrity of the message, i.e. that the
message was not altered from the moment it was digitally signed.
Since the digital signature of a message depends on the private key used to produce it, the
system of public key cryptography reduces the ability of the sender to deny that a message
was sent by him.
A Certification Authority is a third party trusted to associate a public and private key pair
with a particular individual or entity.
It identifies the individual or entity which is to receive a key pair, issues keys, revokes keys
when a private key may have been lost, stolen or otherwise made public, and provides no-
tice regarding key pairs which have been revoked. It is possible for an individual to generate
his or her own keys instead of a Certification Authority.
A public/private key pair is a set of two numbers. The electronic document or record which
links the key pair to an individual or entity is a digital certificate issued by a Certification
Authority.
The digital certificate, which has been digitally signed by the Certification Authority, con-
tains the public key and serves as evidence that the individual identified in the certificate
holds the corresponding private key.
Vlatacom / Annual catalogue 2010

Two or more Certification Authorities can be linked together by cross-certification. This sys-
tem of trust, formed of several Certification Authorities and their users, form a public key
infrastructure.
A public key infrastructure provides security services for electronic communications and the
electronic exchange of information between parties, including those who do not have a
previously established relationship.
From the user point of view, encryption of data or adding a digital signature is a simple
process, usually carried out automatically by using the appropriate software.
The public key infrastructure comprises comprehensive security technologies and policies,
using cryptography and relevant standards to provide fundamental improvements in com-
puting infrastructure. PKI features:
• User authentication stronger than traditional “passwords on servers” mechanisms,
• Digital signing of email and other documents, providing verification of the originator’s
identity and faster, more efficient, paper-free business processes, and
• Encryption to protect critical emails and other data in a user-focused manner.

VIDPS – BIOMETRIC DOCUMENT ISSUING SYSTEM
VIDPS (Vlatacom Integrated Document Production System) is a modular, distributed sys-tem for the production of electronic biometric identification documents. It includes acqui-sition of demographic and biometric data from individuals, its verification by authorised personnel, physical production of documents, quality control and final issuing of the doc-ument to its owner.
The system is secured with the latest in data protection and access control technology.
PURPOSE AND USE OF VIDPS SYSTEM VIDPS is a system for the production of electronic biometric documents, which manages, con-trols, supervises and secures the entire process of acquisition of demographic and biometric data, provides adaptable working processes for the verification, authentification and validation of data, carries out quality control and issues finished documents to their owners.
The system also provides access control whereby the system administrator defines different user groups with clearly defined access rights. The user can carry out different functions within the system depending on the rights allocated him or her.
Every action, time, date and authorised person is recorded and stored within the system in order to enable inspection of the entire document history and accompanying processes at any time.
Protection of the system is based on PKI and SSL standards. Each user, server or workstation within the system must have a valid certificate issued by the Certification Authority which con-firms the identity of a person or computer.
The system can be used for simultaneous production of different types of documents.
ARCHITECTURE AND FUNCTIONALITY OF VIDPS SYSTEM
The system consists of the following modules:1. Data acquisition station2. System backend3. Personalisation server4. Other system elements
The data acquisition station serves to collect demographic and biometric data. It consists of: • Terminal for data acquisition:• TVlatacom kiosk• TOperator’s computer• Local server
The kiosk comprises hardware components for the acquisition of biometric data:
• Camera, for taking facial image
Vlatacom / Annual catalogue 2010

• Finger scanner, for collection of fingerprints• Signature scanner, for collecting signatures
The kiosk is controlled remotely from the operator’s workstation.
The acquired data is sent to the central server through the local server. The local server re-ceives and stores the data from all terminals within one station.
It is very simple to add new local servers and stations for data acquisition to the existing system.
The system backend stores and processes data collected from all stations. This is where the data is verified through adaptive working circuits that could contain verifications of various stop lists.
It consists of three parts:
• A central server which stores the acquired data in the database, enables searching ac-cording to various criteria and provides services necessary for the functioning of other parts of the system
• A workflow server which enables easy configuration of different procedures used during various document approval and production workflows.
• A database which stores acquired biometric and demographic, as well as all other data necessary for the functioning of the system
The personalisation server has the following three functions:
- Preparation for document production during which data is organised into the form necessary for the production of the particular type of document (the system can be used for simultaneous production of several different document types)
- Personalisation of data and physical document production
- Control of quality and validity of finished documents.
Other parts of the system:
• Document issue station, where the document is issued to the owner after his or her iden-tity is confirmed by fingerprint;
• System user management system, which controls the access rights of every system user,
• Application storage, controlling flow of resources in the system such as electronic cards, chips, holograms, etc.
External Systems:
Certification Authority (CA), central to the PKI system. The Certification Authority is a trust-worthy body that issues certificates, handles their life-cycle and cancels certificates if neces-sary. Any person or computer that is to use or comprise an integral part of the system is re-quired to possess a valid certificate issued by the CA which confirms their identity.
OCSP Responder (Online Certificate Status Protocol Responder), used for communication between external systems and the CA in order to achieve a higher level of security and re-lieve the load on and isolate the certification body.
The system can be used for parallel production of all biometric documents such as pass-ports, identity cards, driving licenses, etc. It can be easily and quickly adapted to different sets of data necessary for different document types.

AFIS
AFIS (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) – the system for automatic recognition of fingerprints is designed to provide the core of the e-Government system. This system primarily enables:
• Reliable identification – matching of biometric data with criminal records already in the central database.
• Assistance to police and other government agencies in solving crimes using collected biometric evidence – fingerprints, palmprints, etc.
• Verification of person’s identity without an ID document.
• Production of new ID documents.
• Verification of passports or visas (documents issued in line with ICAO standards).
Vlatacom’s AFIS system presents a complete solution for collection, processing and storage of fingerprints, palmprints and other biometric data. It is used for the creation of new bio-metric databases, as well as to update existing ones. New database records are added in line with NIST standards.
Vlatacom’s AFIS delivers a comprehensive solution for enrollment, identification, and verifi-cation in law enforcement and in identity management applications.
Vlatacom’s AFIS system supports the following operations by default:
• Live data acquisition, i.e., the collection and processing of a variety of biometric data of a person. These biometric data include fingerprints, palmprints, photographic images and descriptive data.
The system can be designed to process single or multiple record types - civilian, forensic (criminal), or both.
Civilian data usually comprises prints of both index fingers (rolled and flat prints), facial im-age as well as of descriptive data about the person.
The criminal or forensic record contains prints of all ten fingers, up to ten facial images and up to seven images of personal traits – tattoos, scars, etc.
Latent presents special type of forensic record, and comprises of images of prints taken from the scene of crime.
• Live checking of ID documents.
• Identification of persons without an appropriate identification document
• Prevention of multiple identities by comparison with the entire central database

ELECTRONIC BORDER CONTROL
The electronic border control system is used for the monitoring and management of state borders. The system allows early detection of potential illegal crossings, their analysis, alarming of the appropriate services, and reaction to the potential threat. The system is designed to work under all weather conditions and in all types of terrain, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
The efficiency and reliability of border control has been significantly enhanced over the former approach. With the introduction of this system the number of staff needed for border control is significantly reduced, as is the possibility of human error and abuse.
Besides border control this system can also be used for the securing of special facili-ties such as prisons, military facilities, power plants, oil terminals, airports, stadiums, factories etc.
The system consists of a national control centre, several regional and local centres, mobile and foot patrols, fixed and mobile surveillance units, unmanned aerial vehicles and aero-stats. It is designed so that local reconnaissance stations constantly scan the territory. When the radar detects a suspicious subject, the camera, which has a zoom capability of up to 40 times, turns in that direction.
Sensors detect moving targets:
1. Men crawling, running, walking, swimming, diving;
2. Vehicles of all sizes and types;
3. Flying and hovering helicopters;
4. Light planes and aerial vehicles;
5. Boats and ships.
The system is based on the principle of DAAR (Detection, Analysis, Alarm and Reaction):
- Detection involves multi-dimensional scanning of land, air and water. Everything is done automatically, unmanned.
- Analysis involves the use of various sensors to verify the alarm and initiate a deci-sion. Different sources of information a correlated in order to take the optimal deci-sion.
- Alarm means generating an alarm on the basis of a variety of data which enables appropriate and prompt intervention.
- Reaction to the alarm is faster due to better coordination and response control.
Such a system of border control prevents:

PASSENGER PROCESSING SYSTEM FOR BORDER CROSSINGS
This solution provides for installation and operation of equipment for monitoring and recognition of number plates, as well as connection of all border crossings into one uni-fied information network. This network can feed into an appropriate database containing:
- Time of entry of passengers and vehicles into and exit from the country,
- Matching passport data with vehicle number plate,
- Information on average transit speed of passengers through the country, that is the average duration of their stay within the borders of the transit country,
- Data on the vehicle itself (matching the number plate taken from the software of the ANPR camera with registration card data from the database of the Ministry of the Interior),
- Information on the flow of vehicles across the border.
Each control unit can be integrated with other police systems and databases and the sys-tem, based on automatically identified number plates, can recognise the following:
Stolen vehicles, vehicles with expired registration, other vehicle technical data, vehicles re-sponsible for traffic violations with the possibility of issuing fines at the control point or border crossing, information about passengers or a driver from the civilian or criminal data-base of the Ministry of the Interior.
The connection of all border crossings into one network ensures up-to-date information on passengers and vehicles at any time, which does much to facilitate prompt and effi-cient police action in the event of criminal activity.
Such a database can also be used by other security services, ministries, government agen-cies, etc. This solution provides better border controls, a higher level of national security and a reduction in crime.
Vlatacom’s system has been designed to be stable and adaptable, making it easy to add functions in line with changes in a country’s laws and regulations and the needs of traffic control at border crossings.
Beside a command and control centre the system also includes border control points, and can easily be upgraded by the integration of additional equipment with existing solutions.
Vlatacom’s improved system for recording of passengers and vehicles at border cross-ings is a number plate recognition system, which consists of a high-resolution camera for recording vehicles, a computer running image processing software, an electronic document reader and a camera for video surveillance. The high-resolution camera cap-
tures the number plates, and the computer immediately recognises letters and numbers and sends them to the command and control centre, together with the exact time of vehicle passage. The border police officer verifies the identity of pas-sengers and their permission to enter the country using Vlatacom’s electronic docu-ment reader, while the video surveillance camera photographs the vehicle. This in-formation is sent to the command and control centre and is stored together with other information on the vehicle.
Upon the next border crossing this procedure is repeated, with additional verification and matching of acquired data with that stored during the previous crossing. The command and control centre is connected to a database containing information on stolen vehicles, as well as to the civilian database, databases on missing persons, personae non gratae, etc. This makes it easier to discover attempts to illegally import and export vehicles and also to find and locate stolen, unregistered or in some other way suspicious vehicles.

WIMAX BROADBAND WIRELESS DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEM
Vlatacom designs, installs and maintains wireless link systems for fast data transfer. Link throughput can range from 17Mb/s to 300Mb/s.
The most frequently used microwave links are those from Motorola or Ceragon, which be-sides their exceptional reliability and small delay time offer a high level of security, since many methods of data encryption can be used.
Links can connect distances of up to 200km in one hop and work even when there is no line-of-sight between end points.
Remote diagnostics of all devices in the system enable constant monitoring of the function-ing of the entire network.
TETRA DIGITAL RADIO SYSTEMS
APPLICATION OF THE TETRA NETWORK
TETRA has been designed for use by European organisations and public services for unified communication. Major plane, ship or railway accidents involving rescue teams from various countries have shown that an interconnecting radio system technology is needed.
The European Telecommunication Standardization Institute – the ETSI – has supported the standardisation of such a technology, so that user and base-stations from different manufac-turers can be used within the system.
Different user groups can be created within the TETRA system such that each isolated group can act as an independent network capitalising on all the advantages of the system as a whole, such as data-transfer or connection to the fixed-line telephone network.
Such independent user groups have the following features:
- Autonomy
- Flexibility in priority allocation
- Flexibility in choosing participants in radio communication
- Privacy

TETRA FUNCTIONS AND APPLICATIONS
- Group calls
- Individual calls
- Emergency calls
- Packet data transfer
- Interconnection with PBX and public fixed-line and cellular telephony
- Text messaging facitlity
- Encrypted speech and data transfer
- Communication outside the covered zone – Direct Mode operation
- Definition of communication priority levels
- Efficient use of frequency resources
ADVANTAGES OF TETRA NETWORK
Unlike analogue radio networks, TETRA is based on a digital technology which enables data transfer (for example, computer databases or positions from GPS location units) in conjunction with the transfer of voice traffic, and provides a system participant capacity which is 3-4 times greater than in previous systems. The increase in capacity is achieved by dividing one frequency between 3 or 4 system users, without a reduction in the quality of voice transfer.
One of the main advantages of digital technology over analogue is the significantly high-er resistance to noise and interference.
• A TETRA network is characterised by a very short connection establishment time of around 0.3 seconds, which is around twenty times faster than the connection time in GSM networks. This trait is especially important in cases when the TETRA network is be-ing used for surveillance and management of automatic remote systems.
• TETRA satisfies certain needs of organisations, companies and institutions which GSM networks cannot (such as group calls, presence of a dispatcher and closed communica-tions).
• TETRA calls are much cheaper than those in GSM systems because in TETRA conversa-tions there is less occupation of the line as compared to GSM.
• The building of TETRA networks is cheaper than building GSM networks since TETRA base-stations have a greater coverage zone than GSM base-stations.
• Unlike GSM, TETRA offers the possibility of working outside the coverage zone, which can be vitally important when the need arises for visits to zones not covered by the sig-nal or when the network infrastructure malfunctions.
• If TETRA is used for data transfer between the user and the system (for example, for automatic vehicle positioning) the price of transfer is significantly lower, while reliability and delivery time is more favourable than in the case of GSM networks.

SCADA SYSTEMS
SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) systems are used for remote surveil-lance and management processes in:
• electrical energy production and distribution plants;
• the oil industry;
• telecommunication systems;
• water production and distribution systems and many other applications.
These systems are comprised of a control centre and remote terminal units (RTU) which are directly connected to sensors and actuators in the facilities.
The control centre collects and processes data, analyses it and manages the process through commands sent to the remote units.
Within the centre, an important component is the software for visual presentation of the system state (the GUI – Graphical User Interface), most commonly the WizCon and Wonder-Ware SCADA applications.
The RTU units have:
• A local processor unit which controls the local process,
• A communication component (Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, Radio or GSM/CSD/GPRS/EDGE),
• A module for connection of incoming signals, which can be analogue or digital,
• A module for sending command signals (analogue or digital).
The system registers events with a resolution of 1ms and is able to react both to normal and unexpected events in the system in just a few milliseconds.

AUTOMATIC VEHICLE LOCATION SYSTEM (AVL/GPS)
The Automatic Vehicle Location System (AVL) enables tracking of the current position of a vehicle, the state of the vehicle and its movement history. Each vehicle is equipped with a GPS receiver. This receiver has a GSM modem used for communication with the control centre and a microprocessor for processing and storage of data.
The primary communication method is via the GSM network, using GPRS and SMS. With ad-ditional equipment it is possible to leverage the user’s existing communication infrastructure (such as radio network, TETRA network, etc.).
The system includes a fully-equipped control centre.
SYSTEM FUNCTIONS:
Positioning – the centre can send an inquiry to each vehicle and establish the current and last valid position. This position is displayed on a map. Depending on their needs the user can order any number of geographic maps of various regions and to different scales. Information on speed and direction can also be received.
Tracking – a route which the vehicle must take in a certain time period can be defined. That information can be stored in the GPS device inside the vehicle, so that if the vehicle leaves the planned route the system can detect this. In this event the operator or the GPS device can carry out a number of pre-defined activities, including immobilisation of the vehicle.
State – information on the status of internal sensors in the vehicle is available through a set of digital connections to the GPS device. For example, the operator can establish whether the engine is running or whether the panic button is on.
Sending commands to the vehicle – an operator with appropriate authority can execute any activity on the vehicle by using the digital outputs on the GPS device. Actions that can be carried out, depending on the devices connected to the digital outputs are, for example, immobilisation of the vehicle’s engine, locking the doors, activating the horn, etc., all with a single command.
Alarming and notification – the GPS device in the vehicle can be programmed to send an alarm or notification to the centre whenever certain conditions are met. The system can deter-mine the region, time interval, maximum speed or a combination of all these.
Generating local log in vehicle – just as the GPS device can be programmed to send alarms and notifications, it can also be programmed to register time, position and status in the local memory of the in-vehicle device. These records can be downloaded by the control centre at the request of the operator or automatically, as pre-defined, for later review. This possibility is provided for devices which do not provide GPRS connectivity.
Reports – based on the contents of the system database, various reports are available on the status and use of the vehicle, operator activities, alarms and notifications. There is also the option to install autonomous functions to be executed at critical moments regardless of communication with the control centre or readiness of the operator at the communication centre.

AUTOMATIC NUMBER PLATE RECOGNITION (ANPR) SYSTEM
This modern system is used for the recording of vehicles passing by a particular location where the control set is installed. The international abbreviation ANPR refers to Automated Number Plate Recognition.
The camera at the control point captures a high resolution picture, from which it is possible to separate letters and numbers, and sends them to the command-control centre. In this way it is possible to instantly detect and locate stolen, unregistered or in some other way suspicious vehicles (vehicles on a blacklist).
This system can also be used for control of access by vehicles to zones with limited ac-cess rights (city areas closed to traffic such as congestion zones, yellow lanes in urban areas, private and public parking lots, etc.).
The control points are equipped with a number plate recognition system, which consists of a high-resolution camera and a computer running image-processing software.
The system operates according to the following concept:
High resolution cameras capture the number plates of vehicles at the control points.
The data on number plates and the captured vehicle image is recorded in the local data-base and compared with information from the central vehicle database. The connection between the control point and the unified control centre is achieved via a wireless network (a TETRA network) or existing optical network, depending on the needs of the client and architecture of the existing system.
In the event that the information about the colour or type of the vehicle does not match the information from the database, or the vehicle does not have valid number plates, the near-est police patrol is notified at once.
The system can also be used for the detection of traffic violations – passing through red lights, speeding, movement in a prohibited direction, etc.
An additional optional feature of this system is pattern recognition – recognition of a vehi-cle of interest or group of such vehicles at any location in the system. When a suspicious vehicle is recognised and flagged in the centre the entire system is notified and it is pos-sible to recognise and detect the passage of that vehicle anywhere in the system.
The control points can be fixed (with one or more ANPR and surveillance cameras per point) or mobile (installed in a patrol vehicle) with one or more cameras on the roof of the vehicle. The mobile ANPR system is an efficient solution for quick detection of a large number of vehicles, whether moving or parked.
VEHICLE LOGGING USING CONTACTLESS CHIPS
The system for recording the passage of vehicles via radio chips is based on sensors
which detect and read a contactless chip built into the vehicle. The contactless radio chip
is placed on the windshield or in another suitable location within the vehicle and contains
basic vehicle information. It is possible to read the chip even at speeds in excess of
120km/h.
The system consists of checkpoints (fixed and mobile) that include several sensors and a
computer for gathering of data. The computer acquires data from the sensor through the
communication network (TETRA) and sends a request to the centre which immediately
sends back information on whether the vehicle has been stolen, is being searched for,
etc., and if necessary the nearest police station is notified.
This system provides additional control of vehicle passage and access to zones with limited
access rights, especially in combination with the number plate recognition system.

BIOMETRIC AUTHENTICATOR Vlatacom Biometric Authenticator is a portable device for matching a “live scanned” fingerprint with the one in form of a 2D barcode printed on identification card.
• Performs biometric verification of the ID card bearer; convenient for health care, elections• Compares the actual fingerprint with the one stored in 2D bar code on the card• 12 hours’ operating autonomy at full load, high reliability of verification• Can be held in a hand• Easy and simple to use
The authentication process lasts a couple of seconds and is performed in two steps. It is initiated by putting a card or badge with the barcode on the embedded scanner window. Authenticator automatically detects the card and scans the barcode. After a successful barcode information retrieval, the process goes to the next phase, which is “live” scanning of the cardholder’s finger. Once the fingerprint capture is completed, the operator and the cardholder get the matching result - “match” or “no match” through audio and visual signals.
The device can be powered by a Li-ion battery supply, USB or A/C connectors. The battery autonomy is 12 hours under heavy usage. Authenticator communicates with the environment over USB interface. In addition, it has a general purpose output port with two galvanic isolated signals - a door lock, gate etc.
The Authenticator is intended for indoor use. It is user-friendly and fast operating, with no slots for inserting the card. The operator needs only to place the card on top of the scanner window to trigger the authentication process.
Authentication process can be used on the following documents:- ID cards- Voting cards- Health cards
The light-weighted compact device scans the subject’s finger using a quality fingerprint scanner operating at 500 dpi resolution. Vlatacom’s Authenticator has a great value in solutions where authentication and fingerprint recognition have to be done quickly and easily with a mobile device that is simple to operate.
