Chairman’s Closing Remarks followed by Afternoon Tea. Close Of Conference

Abstract

Before Sept 11, work in transportation security focused largely on aviation security. Not until recently has the longstanding work covered vulnerabilities in airports too. Among these vulnerabilities were: airport screeners’ inadequate detection of threats when screening passengers and their carry-on bags prior to their boarding aircraft; the absence of any requirement to screen checked baggage on domestic flights; inadequate controls for limiting access to secure areas at airports; and inadequate security for air traffic control computer systems and facilities.

Since a radical shift in the importance placed on these vulnerabilities, Airports are now faced with implementing rapidly changing security measures and equipment, whilst still ensuring continued effective operations.

This conference will discuss what leading authorities, organisations, airports and technology manufacturers have done and are doing to keep up with the latest security trends and regulations without compromising efficiency.
