Session 2 – The Future: A need for ICAO, States, and Industry to respond more effectively to aviation threats through the use of emerging technology and processes How can ICAO facilitate the delivery of emerging screening technology to the global aviation market? Global aviation interests remain an enduring and evolving high-priority target for terrorists. As adversaries continue to employ novel means to target civil aviation, operators are required to continually consider changes and enhancements to their security postures. Adversaries will continue to explore and employ clever concealment scenarios for explosives, chemical substances, dangerous goods, customs controlled items, and even basic simple sharp objects. National laboratories, start-up companies, and the greater Research and Development community are working hard to help address aviation threats. Likewise, greater pressure is being placed on regulators and manufacturers to quickly develop and employ mitigating solutions. This session will look at innovative approaches to leverage robust and agile screening solutions that could address current and future aviation threats, with the assistance of ICAO.
