Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This letter responds to the Subcommittee's December 2000 request that we determine what security improvements were implemented by federal agencies and airports as a result of the testimony we presented to the Subcommittee in May 2000 regarding security breaches at selected agencies and airports. Our May 25, 2000, testimony presented our findings with respect to the Subcommittee's request that we investigate the potential security risk posed by the use of stolen or counterfeit law enforcement badges and credentials. The concern was that such badges and credentials, which are readily available for purchase on the Internet and from other public sources, could be used by criminals, terrorists, and foreign intelligence agents to gain access to secure government buildings and airports. To address these concerns, Office of Special Investigations agents conducted an undercover operation in April and May 2000 to gain entry into 19 federal sites and 2 commercial airports in the Washington, D.C., area and in Orlando, Florida. At each site, the agents carried bogus badges and credentials, declared themselves as armed law enforcement officers, and gained entry without submitting to magnetometer and x-ray screenings. Our agents were 100-percent successful in penetrating the 21 targeted sites, and at no time were their bogus credentials or badges challenged by anyone. Before the May 2000 hearing, we briefed agency officials on how we gained entry to their facilities.

Subcommittee on Transportation Security and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been a series of security breaches in which loaded weapons were brought onto commercial airplanes unbeknownst to TSA and airport officials, calling in question airport access control measures and employee vetting procedures. These alarming incidents could have had devastating consequences if those involved had intended to carry out attacks. TSA spends billions of dollars every year to ensure every passenger is screened before boarding a commercial flight. However, we must ask ourselves: What good is all the screening at the front door if we are not paying attention enough at the back door? On December 23, 2014, Federal agents arrested Eugene Harvey, a Delta baggage handler at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta and charged him with trafficking in firearms and violating security agreements-requirements. On January 13, 2015, Port Authority police in New York City arrested a Federal Aviation Administration official at LaGuardia Airport after he flew with a loaded firearm on a Delta flight from Atlanta to LaGuardia. On January 24, 2015, the FBI arrested another Delta employee at Atlanta airport for boarding a flight to Paris without first being screened. These problems are not unique to just one airport. Every case presents unique challenges and opportunities for TSA, the airports, the airlines, and other partners to strengthen their security protocols.

Download or read book Airline Passenger Security Screening written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-07-19 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses new technologies being considered by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for screening airport passengers for concealed weapons and explosives. The FAA is supporting the development of promising new technologies that can reveal the presence not only of metal-based weapons as with current screening technologies, but also detect plastic explosives and other non-metallic threat materials and objects, and is concerned that these new technologies may not be appropriate for use in airports for other than technical reasons. This book presents discussion of the health, legal, and public acceptance issues that are likely to be raised regarding implementation of improvements in the current electromagnetic screening technologies, implementation of screening systems that detect traces of explosive materials on passengers, and implementation of systems that generate images of passengers beneath their clothes for analysis by human screeners.
