In cooperation with industry stakeholders, we strive to continuously improve aviation standards. These initiatives in particular have or will have a major impact on air transport:
Passenger security: Checkpoint of the Future
The Checkpoint of the Future is our vision for more effective and sustainable passenger screening. For governments, it will offer improved ability to counter threats, ability to focus resources where risk is greatest, and leverage investment made on existing technologies. Strong support has been expressed by major international regulators. More on the CheckPoint of the Future

Cargo security
Regulators are an essential partner in strengthening further the security of air cargo, while ensuring the vital flow of commerce. See where we are at on these critical projects:
