Businesses and governments rely on Thales to bring trust to billions of digital interactions they have with people. Our identity management and data protection technologies help banks exchange funds, people cross borders, energy become smarter and much more. More than 30,000 organisations already rely on Thales solutions to verify the identities of people and devices, grant access to digital services, analyse vast quantities of information and encrypt data.

We believe in a safer and more sustainable world where everyone has access to a secure, trusted identity.

To support this vision, Thales delivers identity and biometric solutions to governments, public authorities and private entities in the fields of civil identity and public security.  We do this by providing highly secure documents that are at the heart of identity schemes, for example Thales is trusted to produce all of the UK identity documents/cards (ePassport, Driving License, biometric residency permit). These include advanced card security features and underpinning cryptographic key management systems, network and security operations centres. We also provide solutions for verifying people’s identities and enrolling them in national registers, for example, over 1,000 Thales ePassport scanners are deployed at UK Immigration entry points and Thales provides over 700 biometric enrolment booths which are deployed across the UK providing a range of identity enrolment services. And, as governments go through a digital transformation, we support them by delivering efficient eGovernment and mGovernment services.
