Israel’s Top Ten Airport Security Technologies
The technologies are interesting and certainly work. But what seems to make the most difference is the thinking.
“Israel concentrates on the passengers and not their luggage so we have a real edge over the rest of the world in protecting travelers,” says Rafi Sela, a top security consultant and former chief security officer at the Israel Airport Authority. “This is in addition to us protecting the whole airport, while the others merely try to achieve aviation security.”
In other words, it’s about the people, not the bags, and it’s about the whole airport, not just the planes.
Also:
“You can’t do security with political correctness. As long as you are doing it without a real plan, it will never work.”
Great quotes. I’ll have to memorise them.
