Welcome

ODDS

Are we more vulnerable to identity and financial theft in this new virtual environment than in the world of banknotes, identity cards and passports? How do we ensure comparable levels of security and protection in both domains? And how do the worlds of physical and digital documents interact and work together; indeed, do they need to? What is the function of governments and central banks when global technology companies are so powerful?? And how will artificial intelligence affect this field?

These questions form the backbone of the Optical & Digital Document Security conference. The conference is the opportunity to sense-check your thinking, approach and technical solutions as well as to showcase your technology and solutions to the technical communities focused on securing our money, our transactions and our personally identifiable information.

We invite you, therefore, to submit your proposals for presentations on the critical issue of document identity and transaction security in this era where the physical, digital and virtual worlds co-exist.

If you are involved in the digital transaction, identity and authentication communities or the physical secured document field, whether commercially, in academia or government, then you will find ODDS a valuable forum to explain, share, learn, network and explore possibilities.

Presentation Proposal Requirements

Proposals should be submitted as a 400-word summary of your paper, with an additional 150 word description of the author/s and their qualifications for presenting this paper (both documents must be in English).

Submit your proposal through the ODDS website by 31 October 2023 for consideration by the Programme Committee. You will be notified if your presentation has been selected by the Programme Committee in December 2023.

Deadline for submission: 31 October 2023
