Abstract: Methods and systems of ensuring data integrity in border security are provided. The system of ensuring data integrity in border security comprises a travel authorization handling system, a travel provider reservation system, and a digital travel authorization provider. The three components interplay to create a strong link between a traveler and a government, thereby ensuring data integrity when applying for entry authorization to an area.

Abstract: Systems for providing a virtual machine and authentication of a user using the virtual machine may perform operations including providing an application programming interface (API) to an electronic device; booting a virtual machine configured to emulate a type of electronic device based on a workstation to which the electronic device is connected; receiving input, using the API, from the electronic device; and providing output to the workstation using the virtual machine. In another example, the operations may include connecting, via at least one network and through an API, to a remote server; providing to the remote server, via the at least one network and the API, the captured biometric indicator; receiving, from a virtual machine executed on the remote server, at least one packet in a defined format based on the biometric indicator; and forwarding the received at least one packet to a workstation communicably connected to the electronic device.

Abstract: Authentication method and system using biometric data of a person. The method is flexibly usable on a plurality of distinct verification and authentication devices and comprises a verification process and an authentication process. First biometric data is captured by the verification device and compared to official biometric data. Captured and inputted data is certified and stored. At time of a required authentication of the person, live biometric data of the person is captured and compared to first biometric data. If the data is similar, the person is automatically authenticated.
