Abstract
Nowadays every provider of critical infrastructure is obliged to use alarm systems - mainly simple surveillance CCTV cameras - to increase security and safety of those objects. Yet such systems have proven ineffectual in preventing security disrupting situations, such as identity theft, as the most they can do is offer evidence to identify perpetrators of criminal acts once they have occurred. To use them for crime prevention, specially trained personnel need to monitor all screens constantly on the look-out for potentially dangerous activity - which is financially and time-consuming and prone to mistakes. This study aims at developing semi-automatic video surveillance technologies, which are able to detect events of changed behaviour of employees in relation to their standard behaviour - this means for example cases of identity theft, possible blackmail of a person, or safety disrupting cases - an employee might be sick or under influence of drugs what may lead to potentially dangerous acts.
Highlights
Nowadays, protected premises are mandatorily equipped with closed-circuit television (CCTV) infrastructure, which proves to be ineffectual for the prevention of identity theft
To emphasize the importance of the BehaVer project, the following quote is used from Mr Alan Gooden, former National Identity Crime Operational Lead UK Policing & Identity Security Adviser to Home Office UK Government Dept.: “ In my experience it is extremely difficult to quantify with any confidence the full extent of any form of Identity Theft / Impersonation owing to the way that crimes are recorded
In this paper a solution for prevention of the physical penetration using identity theft - the BehaVer framework was introduced, consisting of a software tool, a standard and an e-learning platform that will be implemented in the future BehaVer project
Summary
Nowadays, protected premises are mandatorily equipped with closed-circuit television (CCTV) infrastructure, which proves to be ineffectual for the prevention of identity theft. To emphasize the importance of the BehaVer project, the following quote is used from Mr Alan Gooden, former (to 2017) National Identity Crime Operational Lead UK Policing & Identity Security Adviser to Home Office UK Government Dept.: “ In my experience it is extremely difficult to quantify with any confidence the full extent of any form of Identity Theft / Impersonation owing to the way that crimes are recorded. This is because the Identity Theft is an enabler to the resultant offending / crime and as a consequence is not recorded as the crime in and of itself
