This event addresses research and innovation for biometrics and digital identity in complex operational environments. It is designed to bring together innovators, users and policy makers working on civil security use cases such as law enforcement, border management and disaster response.

Organised by the European Association for Biometrics in cooperation with CERIS, this event is part of Darmstadt Biometrics Week 2026. It will focus on operational challenges such as privacy, interoperability, trust, usability and explainability, presenting current European research and studies, including work linked to Horizon Europe projects.

Attendance for this specific event is free of charge, but registration is required and participants need to select the €0 registration option. Those also attending other days of Darmstadt Biometrics Week can use the discount code CERIS-RPC2026 when registering.
