As digital identity frameworks mature worldwide — from mobile driver's licenses to entry-exit biometric programs and regulated digital wallets — physical identity proofing remains the least standardized link in the chain. Drawing on the operational experience of deploying 30,000+ unattended biometric enrollment devices across 18+ countries, this session shares practical lessons on Presentation Attack Detection at scale, the engineering discipline required for unattended operation, and what it takes to support multiple regulatory frameworks concurrently. The session translates these operational insights into the vocabulary of US frameworks — including NIST SP 800-63-4, ISO/IEC 30107, and AAMVA mDL issuance — and outlines transferable use cases for DMV/mDL kiosks, federal enrollment infrastructure, and high-volume public environments.
