Biography
Jordan Brough spent the first few years of his career as a graphic designer
for many well-known consumer brand names. Because of his penchant for
complicated geometric designs, Jordan eventually became interested in the topics
of security design and counterfeiting. At that point, he decided to change careers.
Jordan obtained a Master of Forensic Science from The George Washington
University. After a short stint as a contractor for the U.S. Secret Service, Jordan
was hired by the Homeland Security Investigations Forensic Laboratory
as a forensic document examiner, specializing in adversarial analysis and
counterfeit deterrence. Jordan spends his time examining suspect documents
for authenticity, testing security documents for vulnerabilities, and consulting
with United States security designers to help them create counterfeitresistant
documents.

Secure document design – Science and creativity:
A case study
Identity is one of the most important rights in the modern world. It provides
protection, peace of mind and freedom for citizens and their governments.
Although today there is a strong shift towards ‘digital identity’, secure identity
documents remain a crucial component of identity protection and verification.
Being compliant and up-to-date with the latest identity security measures
provides nations with credibility and legitimacy on the international stage.
It’s not just the design themes and aesthetics that are completely tailored
to each country. Individual nations face different levels of identity threat,
from counterfeiting and fraudulent alteration of documents to the use of
stolen components.
Putting the newly launched UK ePassport, entitled ‘Creative United Kingdom’
into the spotlight, we examine how passport design is a skilled mix of science
and creativity, researching layering and integrating all elements to provide a
secure document a nation can be proud of.
