Italian citizens are issued a unique passport number for international travel. This sequence contains personally identifiable information such as their full name, address, race, gender, etc. Government entities utilize this sequence to monitor the movement of their citizens. Unauthorized access to this information can result in identity theft, leaving individuals susceptible to financial loss and legal concerns. Additionally, unauthorized individuals could enter and exit the country posing a national security threat. Compliance with international data protection guidelines and general safeguarding is paramount to prevent the misuse of people's personal information.

For more information about IT_PASSPORT

Will detect in the format CC0000000, with two letters followed by seven digits.

Will use XX0000000 as a test example
