			| Global security is one of the greatest challenges of our time, and one of the key aspects is protection of personal identities - in electronic
 transactions, personal data or the legally binding nature of electronically
 concluded business. Electronic documents like Smart Cards ensure
 that confidential information and biometric data are practically impossible
 to steal and misuse by preventing unauthorized access. That is
 why more and more government authorities and businesses are discovering
 the benefits of electronic documents. They essentially provide a
 secure link to the wide range of networked applications and services,
 such as those in the Internet and intranets, in mobile communications,
 e-government, e-commerce and access control.
 With its e-Documents Division, Morpho is a pioneer and market leader in the
 field of Smart Cards and e-Documents. Morpho now offers cards for all
 market segments, as well as personalized documents, blank documents,
 tokens, passports, inlays or modules, hosting their own operating systems.
 The portfolio of Morpho‘s e-Documents Division covers hardware, software,
 consulting and service for electronic documents, such as Smart Cards, in the
 telecommunications, health, identification, transport, pay TV and payment
 sectors.
 This Division employs over 2,500 people around the world and runs cuttingedge
 production sites in Germany, Brazil, the Netherlands, Russia, Mexico
 and India. Nine strategically located development centers produce a steady
 flow of innovations that change the world. Payment
