Description

Le domaine de l'invention concerne un document de sécurité et le procédé pour sécuriser ledit document de sécurité. Un tel document peut notamment consister en un visa de séjour émis par une autorité compétente d'un état.The field of the invention relates to a security document and the method for securing said security document. Such a document may in particular consist of a residence visa issued by a competent authority of a state.

Généralement, un document de sécurité porte des données d'identification spécifiques au porteur, par exemple des inscriptions écrites et des images telles qu'une photographie du porteur. Dans le cas d'un visa, celui-ci indique généralement l'autorité qui l'a délivré, une date de délivrance, une durée de séjour, une durée d'utilisation et un motif.Generally, a security document carries bearer specific identification data, for example, written inscriptions and images such as a photograph of the wearer. In the case of a visa, it usually indicates the authority that issued it, a date of issue, a length of stay, a duration of use and a reason.

Les documents de sécurité font régulièrement l'objet de tentative de falsification et de contrefaçon.Security documents are regularly falsified and counterfeited.

Pour cela, les documents de sécurité portent également des protections contre la fraude consistant par exemple en une puce électronique contenant des informations d'identité du porteur, les informations de cette puce pouvant être lues par un dispositif électronique adapté. La demanderesse a déposé la demande de brevet portant le numéro de publication FR2890213 concernant un document de sécurité de type visa destiné à être apposé sur un document de base de type passeport et qui consiste en une étiquette adhésive comportant un dispositif électronique RFID (de l'anglais « Radio Frequency Identification ») enfermé entre deux couches adhésives. Cette protection pour visa peut devenir problématique lorsque ce document est attaché à un passeport ayant également une protection par puce RFID. En effet, lors de la lecture pour la vérification du passeport ou du visa, les deux puces RFID peuvent se perturber mutuellement lors de la présentation du passeport auprès du dispositif électronique de lecture et ainsi empêcher la lecture des puces électroniques de protection.For this, the security documents also carry fraud protection consisting for example of an electronic chip containing identity information carrier, the information of this chip can be read by a suitable electronic device. The Applicant filed the patent application bearing the publication number FR2890213 concerning a visa-type security document intended to be affixed to a passport-type basic document and consisting of an adhesive label comprising an RFID electronic device ("Radio Frequency Identification") enclosed between two adhesive layers. This visa protection can become problematic when this document is attached to a passport that also has RFID chip protection. Indeed, during the reading for the verification of the passport or visa, the two RFID chips can interfere with each other during the presentation of the passport with the electronic reading device and thus prevent the reading of the electronic protection chips.

L'objectif de l'invention est de proposer une protection contre la falsification d'un document de sécurité destiné à être apposé sur un document de base portant également une puce électronique de protection.The object of the invention is to provide protection against falsification of a security document intended to be affixed to a base document also carrying a protection chip.

Plus précisément, l'invention concerne un document de sécurité, par exemple de type visa, destiné à être apposé sur une feuille d'un document d'identité et portant des données, notamment des données personnelles spécifiques à un porteur du document de sécurité. Selon l'invention, il comprend deux parties séparables qui révèlent une information d'authentification lisible uniquement lorsque ces parties séparables sont positionnées l'une par rapport à l'autre selon au moins une configuration de vérification.More specifically, the invention relates to a security document, for example of the visa type, intended to be affixed to a sheet of an identity document and carrying data, including personal data specific to a carrier of the security document. According to the invention, it comprises two separable parts which reveal an authentication information readable only when these separable parts are positioned relative to one another according to at least one verification configuration.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, la première partie comprend des données représentant l'information d'authentification dans un format tel que l'information d'authentification est cachée, et la deuxième partie séparable comprend un révélateur apte à révéler l'information d'authentification. L'information d'authentification est lisible uniquement lorsque le révélateur est positionné en regard des premières données.According to one embodiment of the invention, the first part comprises data representing the authentication information in a format such that the authentication information is hidden, and the second separable part comprises a developer capable of revealing the authentication information. authentication information. The authentication information is readable only when the developer is positioned next to the first data.

Selon les variantes de l'invention, le révélateur est choisi parmi :

  • Un réseau tramé en ligne et/ou en points apte à révéler l'information d'authentification cachée par la technique de stéganographie,
  • Un filtre polarisant apte à révéler l'information d'authentification cachée comprenant un élément polarisé,
  • Un filtre coloré apte à révéler la ou les couleurs avec laquelle ladite information d'authentification cachée est formée.
According to the variants of the invention, the developer is chosen from:
  • An in-line and / or dot matrix network capable of revealing the authentication information hidden by the steganography technique,
  • A polarizing filter capable of revealing the hidden authentication information comprising a polarized element,
  • A color filter capable of revealing the color or colors with which said hidden authentication information is formed.

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'information d'authentification est séparée en deux parties, la première partie séparable du document de sécurité comprend des premières données représentant une première partie de l'information d'authentification et la deuxième partie séparable comprend des deuxièmes données représentant une deuxième partie de l'information.According to one embodiment of the invention, the authentication information is separated into two parts, the first separable part of the security document comprises first data. representing a first portion of the authentication information and the second separable portion includes second data representing a second portion of the information.

De préférence, l'information d'authentification est une image, les premières données représentant une première partie de l'image et les deuxièmes données représentant une deuxième partie de l'image.Preferably, the authentication information is an image, the first data representing a first portion of the image and the second data representing a second portion of the image.

Selon cette dernière variante, l'image est formée lorsque les deuxièmes données sont positionnées en regard des premières données.According to this last variant, the image is formed when the second data are positioned opposite the first data.

Selon l'une quelconque des variantes précédentes, la première partie est une étiquette apte à être fixée sur la feuille du document d'identité, et la deuxième partie a une forme générale de carte, ou selon une autre variante, la deuxième partie est une étiquette apte à être fixée sur la feuille du document d'identité et la première partie a une forme générale de carte, l'étiquette étant formée par une feuille, entièrement ou en partie, transparente pour que la carte soit visible à travers l'étiquette.According to any one of the preceding variants, the first part is a label that can be fixed on the sheet of the identity document, and the second part has a general card shape, or according to another variant, the second part is a label adapted to be affixed to the sheet of the identity document and the first part has a general shape of a card, the label being formed by a sheet, entirely or partly, transparent so that the card is visible through the label .

Selon l'une quelconque des variantes, l'étiquette comprend une couche adhésive répartie sur la surface de l'étiquette de sorte que l'étiquette forme avec la feuille du document d'identité une pochette de rangement destinée à recevoir la carte lorsque l'étiquette est fixée sur la feuille du document d'identité ou l'étiquette comprend également une poche de rangement fixée sur sa surface pour accueillir la carte.According to any one of the variants, the label comprises an adhesive layer distributed on the surface of the label so that the label forms with the sheet of the identity document a storage pouch intended to receive the card when the The label is attached to the identity document sheet or the label also includes a storage pocket attached to its surface to accommodate the card.

L'invention concerne également un procédé de vérification d'un document de sécurité selon l'une quelconque des variantes de réalisation telles que décrites précédemment. Ce procédé est remarquable en ce qu'on positionne les parties séparables du document dans une des configurations de configuration pour vérifie l'information d'authentification.The invention also relates to a method for verifying a security document according to any one of the variant embodiments as described above. This method is remarkable in that the separable portions of the document are positioned in one of the configuration configurations to verify the authentication information.

Selon une première variante du procédé, pour vérifier l'information d'authentification, on positionne la deuxième partie séparable du document de sécurité par rapport à la première partie séparable de sorte que le révélateur soit apte à lire l'information d'authentification cachée dans les données de la première partie.According to a first variant of the method, to verify the authentication information, the second separable portion of the security document is positioned relative to the first separable portion so that that the developer is able to read the authentication information hidden in the data of the first part.

Selon une deuxième variante du procédé, pour vérifier l'information d'authentification, on positionne la deuxième partie du document de sécurité par rapport à la première partie de sorte que l'information d'authentification est obtenue par combinaison de premières données présentes sur la première partie et de deuxièmes données présentes sur la deuxième partie. Selon cette deuxième variante la combinaison des premières données et des deuxièmes données forment une image.According to a second variant of the method, to verify the authentication information, the second part of the security document is positioned with respect to the first part so that the authentication information is obtained by combining first data present on the first part and second data present on the second part. According to this second variant, the combination of the first data and the second data form an image.

L'invention permet également de sécuriser le lien entre le visa étiquette apposé sur le passeport et la carte à puce. Elle augmente ainsi les difficultés pour falsifier ce document visa.The invention also makes it possible to secure the link between the visa stamp affixed to the passport and the smart card. It thus increases the difficulties to falsify this visa document.

Le principal avantage tient à ce que le porteur dispose d'une carte au format ID1 accompagnant le visa, à savoir une carte personnelle pour lequel le parc existant de lecteur peut être utilisé (lecteur contacts et/ou sans contact) ; Comme tous les titres réglementé par l'Europe (permis de conduire, titre de résident), ce facteur de forme permet d'ajouter facilement une application nationale de services en lignes (signatures, authentification etc...) ; Le format ID1 du visa permet alors d'uniformiser les titres délivrés par l'Europe, et en particulier les fusions des titres comme le permis de conduire pour les étrangers, et le visa par exemple ;The main advantage is that the holder has a card ID1 format accompanying the visa, namely a personal card for which the existing reader fleet can be used (contact reader and / or contactless); Like all the securities regulated by Europe (driver's license, title of resident), this form factor makes it possible to easily add a national application of services in lines (signatures, authentication etc ...); The ID1 format of the visa then makes it possible to standardize the titles issued by Europe, and in particular the mergers of titles such as the driving license for foreigners, and the visa for example;

L'invention consiste à améliorer la sécurité pour un document de sécurité et se destine plus particulièrement à un visa. Un document de sécurité de type visa comprend généralement plusieurs protections contre la falsification, par un exemple la photographie du porteur reproduite selon des normes de sécurité, une marque optique ayant une apparence variable selon l'angle de vue, et des inscriptions dans une encre optique ayant une couleur variable selon l'angle de vue.The invention consists in improving the security for a security document and is intended more particularly for a visa. A visa-type security document generally includes several falsification protections, for example, a photograph of the wearer reproduced according to security standards, an optical mark having a variable appearance depending on the angle of view, and inscriptions in an optical ink. having a variable color according to the angle of view.

En outre, le visa selon l'invention comprend deux parties séparables, une étiquette à coller dans le passeport du porteur et une carte à puce. Selon l'invention, les deux parties séparables révèlent une information d'authentification lisible uniquement lorsque ces parties séparables sont positionnées l'une par rapport à l'autre selon au moins une position de vérification.In addition, the visa according to the invention comprises two separable parts, a label to be pasted in the carrier's passport and a smart card. According to the invention, the two separable parts reveal readable authentication information only when these separable parts are positioned relative to one another according to at least one verification position.

L'information d'authentification lie ainsi les deux parties séparables du document de sorte qu'un agent de contrôle peut vérifier les données personnelles de chaque document et contrôler le lien entre les deux parties séparables du visa par cette information d'authentification. Cette dernière peut prendre plusieurs formes qui sont décrites dans la suite de la description dans des exemples de mode de réalisation.The authentication information thus links the two separable parts of the document so that a control agent can verify the personal data of each document and control the link between the two. separable parts of the visa by this authentication information. The latter can take several forms which are described in the following description in exemplary embodiments.

La carte à puce peut contenir des informations relatives au visa en format électronique et d'autres applications électroniques potentielles.The smart card may contain visa information in electronic format and other potential electronic applications.

Selon l'invention, le visa consiste en une première partie ayant la forme d'une étiquette destinée à être collée dans le passeport du porteur et la deuxième partie consiste en une carte personnelle dont les données peuvent être lues par des dispositifs électroniques de lecture par contact et/ou sans contacts, et/ou à l'oeil nu par l'agent de contrôle.According to the invention, the visa consists of a first part having the form of a label to be stuck in the passport of the wearer and the second part consists of a personal card whose data can be read by electronic reading devices by contact and / or without contact, and / or with the naked eye by the control agent.

En outre, le visa comprend des données spécifiques au porteur et au visa délivré parmi lesquelles des données relatives à l'autorité qui l'a délivré, une date de délivrance, une durée de séjour, une durée d'utilisation et un motif. De plus, une information d'authentification est attribuée aux parties séparables du document de sécurité. L'information d'authentification permet de lier les parties séparables et de vérifier que chaque partie a bien été émise par l'autorité compétente pour le porteur prévu ainsi que pour le visa prévu. Selon l'invention, l'information d'authentification est illisible sur les données destinées au contrôle lorsque les parties séparables ne sont pas positionnées dans la configuration de vérification. Le procédé de vérification du document de sécurité selon l'invention consiste donc à vérifier l'information d'authentification qui lie les deux parties séparables. L'information d'authentification destinée à la vérification du lien ne peut être lue que lorsque les parties séparables sont positionnées dans la configuration de vérification.In addition, the visa shall include carrier-specific data and the issued visa, including data relating to the issuing authority, date of issue, length of stay, duration of use and reason. In addition, authentication information is assigned to the separable parts of the security document. The authentication information is used to link the separable parts and to verify that each part has been issued by the competent authority for the intended holder as well as for the intended visa. According to the invention, the authentication information is illegible on the data intended for the control when the separable parts are not positioned in the verification configuration. The verification method of the security document according to the invention therefore consists in verifying the authentication information that links the two separable parts. The authentication information for the link verification can only be read when the separable parts are positioned in the verification configuration.
