Civil Enrollment Systems



Strong identity management begins at enrollment.


Enrollment is the first step in creating and establishing strong identity management programs. Processing someone under a wrong or assumed name, or capturing low-quality or minimal biometric data can affect the success of any civil ID scheme by adding costs, fostering identity fraud and hindering the ability of a government entity to properly administer services. Our civil enrollment systems help you avoid these issues, ensuring maximum accuracy of the subject record by verifying that a person is who s/he claims to be, and that s/he can be properly identified in downstream usage applications.

L-1’s civil enrollment products help you to:

  • Capture highest quality data for maximum downstream AFIS performance
  • Establish a complete identity record with fingerprint, face, iris and demographic information
  • Streamline the capture process, even in high-traffic environments or when the operator is not an expert in collecting biometrics
  • Link the enrollment process with enterprise-wide capabilities including backend identification systems, credentialing, verification and physical/network access applications



  • Millions of European passports produced using L-1 software solutions
  • Developed by those actively involved in establishing today’s standards for ID programs
  • Over 250,000 BioTouch® single-finger readers sold worldwide
  • More than 15,000 live scans installed across the U.S. and in more than 20 countries
  • More than 500 PIER-T™ systems deployed as part of the Biometric Application Toolset (BAT), a multi-biometric security platform developed by the U.S. Army Battle Command Battle Lab and being distributed to the Navy, Marines, Army and other DOD and non-DOD agencies
