National Register
Core system for secure storage and management of citizen's personal and bimetric data.
National citizen register
The National Citizen Register (NatReg) is a central repository of demographic and biometric data for a country’s entire population. As the core of the eGovernment infrastructure, NatReg manages both textual demographic information (such as name, surname, and date of birth) and highly sensitive biometric data (including facial images, fingerprints, and iris scans).
Citizen data within NatReg is continuously updated based on key life events – such as births, changes in marital status, or changes of residence – making it a reliable source of authoritative master data for all government agencies.
NatReg Platform
NatReg ensures the secure handling of sensitive data through strict access controls and trusted system-to-system exchange, while maintaining a comprehensive audit trail that guarantees traceability, oversight, and accountability.
Platform Use Case
- Secure citizen data storage
- Biometric data acquisition
- Paper document scanning and sorting
- Data categorization, search, analysis and reporting
- Controlled data sharing with government institutions
- Access rights control and system activity monitoring
- Centralized or distributed system architecture
Secure Data. Connected Government.
Strict Access Control
NatReg strictly controls which system functionalities and which type of data are accessed by both operators and external systems.The systems keeps a cryptographically protected journal of all data changes and actions, which guarantees not only data privacy, but also the ability to track the entire history of data changes of a particular person.
In order to achieve a high level of data protection, NatReg is usually established in combination with our Cryptographically Protected Audit Log (CPAL) subsystem which links data groups and then signs them digitally using cryptographic keys stored on the Hardware Security module (HSM) device. This is how the system data is protected from all sorts of internal threats (including malicious system administrator threats).
NatReg and Government Service Bus
Majority of eGovernment systems use some sort of Government Service Bus for exchanging data among various government institutions. Since the protection of government data is of the highest priority, NatReg systems is recommended to be established together with the Crypto Proxy subsystem for secure system authentication on the Government Service Bus and reliable data exchange.
What is achieved in this way is the highest security level regarding data exchange between national registers and other systems which have access to the state main of data. Crypto Proxy guarantees that only qualified institutions may access the state data main and that the exchanged data is visible only to the intended institutions.
Citizen Data Management
NatReg and IDStar are two cornerstones of the electronic identity and citizen data management infrastructure. By combining demographic and biometric information with identity verification processes, they support online authentication, physical identification and the secure management of citizen records.
NatReg maintains citizen data through continuous updates reflecting key life events, including births, changes in marital status and changes of residence. This allows government institutions to work with accurate, up-to-date information across administrative processes. Together, NatReg and IDStar support secure government operations and provide the foundation for a fully digitalized public administration.
