Passenger Risk Assessment DynamicsPassenger Risk Assessment Dynamics

Advance risk assessment

• Border management can extend beyond physical borders

• Advance Risk Analysis is integral part of border management using available data gathered in advance

Agenda

• The border management challenge• Data is key• Global implementations• Future trends in border management

What airline passenger data is available?

• Advance Passenger Information• Advance Passenger Processing• Reservation & check-in data

The potential privacy challenges

• API/APP • PNR data ?• Biometrics ….

What are the benefits for a Government?What are the benefits for a Government?

• Improved facilitation• Lower costs• Expanded security

… Airlines?

• Reduced risk of carrying improperly documented passengers

• Consistent passenger processing around the world

• Reduced need to invest in multiple, country-specific solutions

Case Study – APIS XML Conversion for India

The Challenge:- India imposes non standard requirement for “legacy APIS” effective April 1, 2008• Airlines must build own solution or face fines or worse

The Solution - SITA XML conversion service allows airlines to use existing IT systems (reduced costs of compliance) - Can be extended to future non-standard requirements

Case Study – APIS XML Conversion for India

SITA rolled out its India APIS Service within 3 months - Over 60 passenger airlines

To date, over 70% of airlines flying to India have signed for SITA XML APIS Service- Over 66K flights per annum to India - Over 16M passengers per annum- Estimated savings to ATI of $25M

The SITA Community service approach can serve airlines facing a growing number of non standard requirements- APP/AQQ/ATC- PNR, PNR push, Secure Flight- APIS, APIS+, XML APIS

Biometric passenger screening solutions

• Automated Border Control• Registered Traveler Programs• Biometric Documents:

e- Passport, RTP smartcard, ID card• eBoarding/SPT vision

• Future convergence

Conclusion

• Your borders can be extended• Security & passenger facilitation increased• Future brings continued convergence of technologies
