An Approach for Passport Digitization using 256-bits Encryption Technique

Digitization of Passport (D-Passports) is widely deployed in most of the  developed countries. It stores the individual information on a tiny Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) chip. The stored information is used to authenticate the identity of individual via wireless interface to reader. In  recent scenario, various countries of government have identified the multiple  fake passports. Usually, these fake passports are used for performing  illegal activities across the country  boundary. Consequently, this issue becomes threats for the nation. Based on this issue, we propose a solution  known as D-passport. D-passport uses two technologies viz. RFID and Smart Integrated Circuit (IC) memory. The passport card generate encrypted key using a combination of RFID, passport number, passport card number and IC ID. Further, this encrypted data is send to the server and the  server decrypts the data. The individual user verifies his/her data with the server data and then sends it back to the  client machine. The theoretical  analysis shows that our 
propose approach enhances the security measure,  and countermeasure threat and attacks.
