strengthen the security of the nation’s transportation systems while ensuring the freedom of movement for people and commerce.</p> <p>Within a year, TSA assumed responsibility for security at the nation’s airports and deployed a federal workforce to screen all commercial airline passengers and baggage.  TSA now screens 100 percent of all passengers into, out of, and within the United States through TSA’s Secure Flight program. TSA uses the latest technology to stay ahead of evolving threats and is continuing their efforts to screen 100 percent of cargo, regardless of where or how it is moving.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-paragraphs field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--section paragraph--view-mode--default paragraph--id--12042 usa-accordion usa-section-accordion" id='accordion-12042'> <h2 class="usa-accordion__heading"> <button id="btn-acc12042" aria-controls="acc12042" aria-expanded="false" class="usa-accordion__button">Improving Security Through Layered, Risk Based Approach </button> </h2> <div class="usa-accordion__content usa-prose" id="acc12042"> <div class="grid-col-fill"> <div class="field field--name-field-content field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--text-field paragraph--view-mode--default mobile-edge-padding"> <div class="grid-col-fill"> <div class="field field--name-field-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden mobile-edge-padding field__item"><p>TSA employs a layered, risk-based approach to secure U.S. transportation systems, working closely with stakeholders in aviation, rail, transit, highway, and pipeline sectors, as well as the partners in the law enforcement and intelligence community. The agency continuously sets the standard for excellence in transportation security through its people, processes, technologies and use of intelligence to drive operations.</p> <p>We use layers of security to ensure the security of the traveling public and the Nation's transportation system. Because of their visibility to the public, we are most associated with the airport checkpoints that our Transportation Security Officers operate.</p> <p>These checkpoints, however, constitute only one security layer of the many in place to protect aviation. More security measures both visible and invisible to the public include:</p> <ul> <li>Intelligence gathering and analysis</li> <li>Checking passenger manifests against watch lists</li> <li>Random canine team searches at airports</li> <li>Federal air marshals</li> <li>Federal flight deck officers</li> </ul></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--section paragraph--view-mode--default paragraph--id--12044 usa-accordion usa-section-accordion" id='accordion-12044'> <h2 class="usa-accordion__heading"> <button id="btn-acc12044" aria-controls="acc12044" aria-expanded="false" class="usa-accordion__button">Expediting Travel While Enhancing Security</button> </h2> <div class="usa-accordion__content usa-prose" id="acc12044"> <div class="grid-col-fill"> <div class="field field--name-field-content field--type-entity-reference-revisions field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--text-field paragraph--view-mode--default mobile-edge-padding"> <div class="grid-col-fill"> <div class="field field--name-field-body field--type-text-long field--label-hidden mobile-edge-padding field__item"><p>TSA is committed to evolving its systems to enhance the safety of the traveling public as well as individual passenger experiences whenever possible. Our new risk-based, intelligence-driven approach to aviation security is evolving from what may have seemed like a one-size-fits-all approach and is establishing TSA as a high performing counterterrorism agency.</p> <p>We are now focusing our resources on those we know least about, and using intelligence in better ways to inform the screening process. This risk-mitigation strategy makes both good business and security sense.</p> <p>TSA Pre✓™  is an initiative based on this risk-based, intelligence-driven approach. TSA is working to enhance security and expedite the screening process for travelers we know and trust who are willing to voluntarily share information with TSA before they travel. When travelers opt into this program, they will qualify for expedited checkpoint screening at airports, significantly decreasing waiting time.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field__item"> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--uswds-card-container paragraph--view-mode--default paragraph--id--7879"> <ul class="usa-card-group">  <li class="tablet:grid-col-6 usa-card show-button">   <div class="usa-card__container"> <header class="usa-card__header"> <h2 class="usa-card__heading"> Aviation Security </h2> </header> <div class="usa-card__media"> <div class="usa-card__img"> <a href="/aviation-security" class="card-link" data-route-name=""> <article class="media media--type-image media--view-mode-large-card-standard"> <div class="layout layout--onecol"> <div class="layout__region layout__region--content"> <div class="field field--name-field-media-image field--type-image field--label-visually_hidden"> <div class="field__label visually-hidden">Image</div> <div class="field__item"> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/large_card/public/2022-01/aviation-security.jpg.webp?itok=WY0suDvx" width="500" height="281" alt="Plane taking off" loading="lazy" class="image-style-large-card" /> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </a> </div> </div> <div class="usa-card__body"> <p>The U.S. Department of Homeland Security is working to raise the baseline for aviation security across the globe by implementing enhanced security measures, both seen and unseen, at all last-point-of-departure airports in 105 countries around world.
