Siemens: Integration – the watchword in airport security

Security has become an ever increasing feature of our daily lives and nowhere is this more readily apparent than in the airport. For the majority of passengers, the most overt indicator is the queue at the security checkpoint as more rigorous checks on passengers and their luggage cause bottlenecks. While passenger and baggage screening understandably remains a high priority for airports, a more holistic approach is often being adopted, one which brings together the different security threats that are faced and deals with them through interoperable solutions using fully integrated systems. If the potential solutions – be they access control, perimeter protection, intrusion detection, video surveillance or a combination of them all – are considered in isolation, this will inevitably lead to gaps in the security provision.
