How cybersecurity is redefining airport security operations
As airports work to improve both security and passenger flow, the checkpoint is evolving into a more connected, data-driven environment.
In a recent article, Shawnessy Scott, director of cybersecurity operations at Leidos, outlines how integrating systems and leveraging real-time data can enable more efficient screening, predictive operations, and better overall performance.
The checkpoint of the future will be more connected, more data-driven and more automated than ever before.

However, increased connectivity also introduces new cybersecurity risks.
As operational and IT systems converge, airports must take a proactive, end-to-end approach to securing checkpoint environments - embedding cybersecurity into system design, ensuring visibility across networks, and strengthening collaboration between airports, technology providers and regulators.
