When a citizen is asked today what airport security means to them, you will get a much different answer today, than you would have if the same question were asked 10 years ago, or even 5 years ago. A lot of changes have occurred over that time period. By far the biggest changes that have come about, involve our approach to security. Notably, these changes have been driven largely by terrorist activities around the globe.

Airport authorities and agencies, including private enterprise and governments around the world responsible for airport and air travel security have responded by implementing a host of different plans. These plans are conceived to address the complexities of security today and also with an eye on tomorrow, by applying a forward thinking approach that encompasses a holistic and technology based view of what a security plan should include.

Today's multilayered and multi-tiered security blueprint including different stakeholders and regulatory requirements takes into account threats extending beyond the terminal to include the entire airport complex and its perimeter.

Some of the challenges associated with airport security include:
  • Meeting regulatory requirements
  • Improving operational efficiency
  • Developing a comprehensive security plan
  • Selecting technology that is scalable and integrates well with existing solutions and infrastructure using open platforms
  • Improving and controlling vehicle and passenger flow
  • Ensuring the passenger experience is a positive one
In multi-tenant facilities, a system capable of sharing resources (e.g., cameras) with multiple stakeholders provides cost savings and flexibility. This type of flexibility allows resources to be used for a range of applications including security and operations without compromising critical activities.

The presence of roving security personnel having the ability to receive incident alerts through a portable device (WIFI or Cellular) enables rapid deployment.

Technology based solutions to help you achieve your objectives include:
  • Implementing Intelligent Video Analytics and Surveillance Systems
  • Leveraging multi-tenant capabilities
  • Integrating Analog and Internet Protocol (IP) cameras in hybrid environments
  • Integrating baggage screening and handling systems (e.g., RFID & EDS) systems
  • Monitoring and tracking capabilities
  • Mapping capability; alerting the operator the exact location of an alarm
