This virtual panel brings together experts to discuss how the aviation checkpoint security is evolving. From AI-driven detection to smarter maintenance and modular systems, the session will focus on the tools airports are using to speed up security throughput and promote safety and security.

 

As global travel returns to pre-pandemic levels and security threats continue to evolve, airports face mounting pressure to improve throughput, reduce false alarms and minimise operational downtime. At the same time, many security infrastructures remain fragmented, outdated or difficult to scale. Join the virtual panel to hear airports discuss the tools and best practices they are employing in this new era of aviation threats,

What you’ll gain from this webinar:

  • Discover the tools your competitors are using to improve checkpoint speed, accuracy, and consistency
  • Understand how to reduce false alarms, boost throughput, and improve your passenger experience scores
  • Explore real-world airport deployments showing their measurable gains in efficiency and compliance
  • Get practical guidance from the experts on building scalable, secure, and future-ready checkpoint systems
