FAST, FRICTIONLESS SECURITY
solutions that maintain high
threat detection while
speeding people and goods to
their destinations are the
future of transit. Underscoring
the industry’s growing push
toward smarter airports, the
Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) has
ramped up technology
deployments by more than
270% since March 2020 alone.
“ The aviation industry was
already embracing seamless
and contactless solutionsbefore the pandemic, which
has only served to accelerate
this ongoing trend,” says Jim
Moos, president of the Civil
Group at leading technology
and security provider Leidos.
“Going forward, it will only
become more important for
transportation leaders to
embrace digital transforma-
tion by making travel
experiences more touchless,
automated, and intuitive.”Top security providers like
Leidos are already helping
speed up this transition by
off ering automated passenger-
screening capabilities,
hyper-accurate computed
tomography (CT) image scans
for baggage scanning, and
fully sanitized automated han-
dling of antimicrobial trays.
Innovations like these simplify
airport traffi c patterns and
workfl ows while minimizingmanual pat-downs and false
alarms. But in the near future,
growing leaps in artifi cial
intelligence (A.I.) and
automation being pioneered
by companies like Leidos will
also increasingly allow
passengers to self-identify
and self-screen, without even
stopping at security check-
points.
“Airline leaders are
increasingly looking for ways
to decrease operating costs
while improving security, just
as passengers are putting an
ever-growing premium on
accessibility, safety, and
convenience,” says Moos. “By
leveraging A.I. and machine-
learning capabilities to quickly
screen passengers and
optimize productivity, our
systems off er all of the pieces
needed to deliver a seamless
air travel experience.” ■CONTENT FROM LEIDOSSECURING THE FUTURE OF AIR TRAVELAutomated and
