Our knowledge and experience in transportation security remains unique. And our work with airlines, airports, governments, regional associations, privacy advocates and industry bodies aims to ensure that not only is legislation properly implemented, but also that security measures achieve maximum effectiveness at each step of the passenger journey.

An example of this is the requirement of Government control authorities wanting to combat illegal immigration and deal effectively with visa overstays and asylum seekers, and who need to find better ways of managing their borders.

The challenge facing them is a complex one, since security needs to be continually improved, but at the same time the rate of flow of travellers across borders must be maintained - and indeed increased, as traveller numbers continue to grow.

SITA’s answer is a transportation security portfolio which includes a range of border management solutions – iBorders.

Better information is provided through the use of a solution such as SITA’s iBorders APP is one response - as better data on arrivals and departures would help authorities detect and manage the risk undesirable travellers may pose to the security and health of their citizens. At the same time it would ease the processing of the vast majority of travellers - indirectly promoting tourism, business and trade.

Another response is by using Interactive advance passenger information (Interactive API). This enables board/no-board directives to be given, extending borders to the point of departure. SITA has provided this to several governments worldwide through the iBorders API – PNR solution.
