LSEC - Leaders in Security

As part of Belgium’s presidency of the EU, this coming 27th and 28th May, the Directorate-General Institutions & Population of the Belgian FPS Interior is holding an international symposium over two half-days in Brussels and devoted to identity management and identity fraud. In parallel, there will also be the presentation of the results of a site survey into the creation, registration and use of identity, conducted as part of a pilot project in eight European countries.

This is undoubtedly a large-scale event that will consist of a programme of internationally renowned presentations, combined with extensive periods for discussion and exchanging information.
A large audience of some 1500 attendees is expected over the 2 days of the symposium, made up as follows:

Target audience :
Belgian and foreign municipalities
Police services
The world of business
Social security
Febelfin
Representatives from the prison services
Organisations representing the homeless
Law and order
Members of the European Commission
Federations and representatives of notaries, bailiffs, lawyers, etc.
Topics and objectives
The topics for this symposium include identity as a whole, the identity card, its uses, misuses and optimisation in terms of security.

The main aim of the symposium, based on the site survey conducted in 8 countries, is to launch a European project in which identity fraud can be tackled as a Europe-wide focus of interest.

This pilot project needs to be extended to all 27 EU countries. The resolution is to create a platform to bring about this enlargement.

Biometric passports and driving licences will also be topics broached during the 2 half-days.
