The future of aviation security will be driven by data informing risk-based decisions and using integrated sensors and devices from multiple providers. It will require open equipment interfaces and common data formats with an oversight mechanism to provide assurance on aspects such as technical standards, certification and liability. Open architecture (OA) allows hardware, software and algorithms from different suppliers to be easily ‘plugged together’. It is defined by Gartner* as: A technology infrastructure with specifications that are public as opposed to proprietary. This includes officially approved standards as well as privately designed architectures, the specifications of which are made public by their designers. Drivers and challenges The general perception is that, in the airport security environment, OA will deliver system flexibility; faster innovation and time to market; and less costly upgrades. The key drivers to achieve these goals are the integration of third party

D-Fend Solutions’ Multi-Sensor Command & Control system (MSC2), a central management solution, controls multiple EnforceAir sensors remotely from a single server, empowering organizations to intuitively safeguard vast expanses of land from rogue drones and quickly scale up for virtually any operational requirement. MSC2 complements and enhances the EnforceAir systems it manages.
The Multi-View CT™ (MVCT)’s powerful design combines multi-view x-ray, high-speed CT and a powerful generator to create 3D reconstructions of complex cargo skids. The MVCT™ screens cargo with 2X the power and 6X the resolution of conventional cargo systems, providing 360° views of cargo for analysts to screen and slice for maximum inspection capability. This scanner brings the same security scrutiny of checkpoint inspection to air cargo, allowing freight forwarders to meet security demands without needing to breakbulk.
