Download or read book Airline Passenger Security Screening written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1996-06-19 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.

Download or read book Airport Passenger Screening Using Millimeter Wave Machines written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2018-01-28 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Transportation Security Administration requested a study by the National Research Council (NRC) to establish the Committee on Airport Passenger Screening: Millimeter Wave Machines to evaluate two models of active millimeter wave scanners: the L3 ProVision 1 and L3 ProVision 2. Airport Passenger Screening Using Millimeter Wave Machines provides findings and recommendations on compliance with applicable health and safety guidelines and appropriateness of system design and procedures for preventing over exposure. This study addresses the issue of whether millimeter wave machines used at airports comply with existing guidelines and whether it would be possible for anything to go wrong with the machines so that, by mistake, it exposes a person to more than 10 W/m2.

Download or read book Secure Flight Program written by Hellen E. Spear and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) had applied relatively uniform methods to screen airline passengers, focusing primarily on advances in screening technology to improve security and efficiency. TSA has recently shifted away from this approach, which assumes a uniform level of risk among all airline travellers, to one that focuses more intently on passengers thought to pose elevated security risks. Risk-based passenger screening includes a number of initiatives that fit within a broader framework addressing security risks, but specifically emphasizes the detection and management of potential threats posed by passengers. This book examines changes to the Secure Flight program since 2009; TSA's efforts to ensure that Secure Flight's screening determinations for passengers are implemented at airport checkpoints; and the extent to which program performance measures assess progress toward goals.

Download or read book Opportunities to Improve Airport Passenger Screening with Mass Spectrometry written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-05-12 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protection of the traveling public from terrorist threats involving explosives is a major goal of the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). For 20 years, the TSA (and the Federal Aviation Administration before it) have been investing in technologies to meet that goal. To support that activity, the TSA has asked the NRC to assess a variety of technological opportunities for offering such protection. The NRC is approaching this assignment by issuing a series of reports on chosen technology applications. This is the first of that series and presents an assessment of mass spectrometry for enhanced trace detection (ETD) of chemicals contained in explosives. The report describes limitations of trace detection in general and the current technologies in particular. It then presents a discussion of the potential for mass spectrometry to improve EDT including challenges faced by such a system, recommendations for starting a program to take advantage of mass spectrometry, and recommendations for a phased implementation plan.

Download or read book Aviation Security Vulnerabilities Exposed Through Covert Testing of TSA s Passenger Screening Process written by Gregory D. Kutz and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2008-03 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Aug. 2006, the Transport. Security Admin. (TSA) modified its passenger screening policies based on the alleged transatlantic bomb plot uncovered by Brit. authorities. With the aim of closing security gaps revealed by the alleged plot, the revised policies restricted the amount of liquids, gels, & aerosols that passengers were allowed to bring through the checkpoint. The author tested whether security gaps exist in the passenger screening process. He attempted to: (1) obtain the instruct. & components needed to create devices that a terrorist might use to cause damage to an airplane & threaten the safety of passengers; & (2) test whether investigators could pass through airport security checkpoints undetected with all the components needed to create the devices.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can positive passenger profiling lower the overall costs of airport security while minimizing the inconvenience to the flying public and retaining airport security at a high level? The authors calculate the cost of scanning as many bags as possible without abandoning the benefits of profiling.

Book excerpt: The Aviation and Transportation Security Act mandates that by December 2002 100 percent of checked baggage be screened. Can this schedule be met? RAND assessed the feasibility of using explosive detection system machines or whether less-expensive explosive trace detection machines could shoulder part of the load. After studying operations at Dulles and Dallas-Fort Worth Airports, the authors concluded that a bottom-up approach on an airport-by-airport basis was better than the top-down approach mandated by the FAA. They identified six problem areas and propose improvements that, while not meeting the deadline, will increase security.
