The global airport automated security screening market was valued at USD 2 billion in 2016 and is expected to reach almost USD 3 billion by 2021, says Technavio.
Technavio has announced its latest market research report on the global airport automated security screening market, under its aerospace portfolio. This market analysis discusses the major drivers and key emerging trends and offers an analysis of key vendors like CEIA, L-3 communications security and detection systems, Nuctech, Rapiscan Systems, SDI, and Smiths Detection.
According to Avimanyu Basu, a lead analyst for aerospace research at Technavio, “As passenger security screening remains a key aspect of airport operations, improvement of the existing passenger screening processes can enhance on-time performance and efficiency of an airport.”
The improvement in efficiency is given equal importance as security owing to the growing passenger traffic. Furthermore, enhancing the passenger screening capabilities in the airport has been a major focus area of investment in both government and private segments. For instance, in July 2016, the TSA entered a partnership with American Airlines to carry out a joint initiative of installing new passenger and baggage screening technology, including CT scanners and automated security screening lanes at some of the selected airports in the US (both domestic and international), where the airline faces heavy passenger traffic.

Evolution of biometrics technology
The use of biometric authentication technology to improve the security at airport premises in the aviation sector is on the rise. Biometric technologies detect the potential misuse of staff and contractor ID badges to gain access to the unauthorized areas within an aerodrome. The use of biometric solutions is expected to increase as they become more cost-effective and reliable.
Integration of IT with airport security
The integration of IT in airports enhances aviation security, and it has attracted new investments in the market. For instance, 3D X-ray machine, provided with advanced automatic threat recognition software, aids effective screening of the baggage. These machines are equipped with both vertical and horizontal rays instead of a single X-ray source as the traditional screening systems.
