4. Initial position
the world has dramatically changed in the last 50 years, with this, the meaning of security documents has changed
thread of international terrorism and crime leads to huge demand in securing such documents to survive as open and free societies
modern security documents include multiple security elements to help against counterfeit; many countries are issuing ID cards and passports with integrated chip and many security features to protect against falsification
Due to this criminals and terrorists are using counterfeighted breeder documents like birth certificates to get a new identity officially

5. Birth certificate – entry to get ID card and passport
According to Interpol, it is easier to counterfeit a birth certificate which mostly is just a piece of paper with nearly no or just a few security elements and to get an ID card or a passport officially rather than trying to counterfeit a modern ID card with a lot of security elements.
Therefore, there will be a huge effort to close this weak link by creating paper documents with higher security which need to be inspected, sorted and packed.

6. 2. Elements used in security papers

7. Secure paper is used for multiple governmental applications

Guilloche
Intaglio
Security ink
UV print

9. 3. Security elements in manufacturing and printing

10. Security elements in production and personalization
We can divide the security elements, based on the processes, into production and personalization. In the standard process, you can distinguish as follows:
Raw
Material
production
Printing of
Security paper
Personalization
Security elements are added to each of the processes – but in separate production steps. Most of the time, production and personalization is done in separate locations. These documents are normally personalized locally at a governmental office.

Security elements in production and personalization
The secure paper will be manufactured and printed in two steps of production. The printing process includes offset, intaglio, guillochs, hotstamp and numbering. In every step of production, the quality of the secure element will be verified.

26. Summary
Today, more and more security elements are used for secure paper manufacturing and printing.
These security elements have to be verified manually.
Each document has a unique ID number. This number has to be monitored and audited throughout the whole process from pre-printing to local personalization.
The DISS is the perfect answer to secure and automize this process.
The DISS:
Creates an audit file of each verified and packaged document.
Ensures total quality control of each document.
Rejects documents with missing, defected or wrong elements.
Ensures the exact amount of documents per final destination.
Prints delivery note and label.
