From friction to flow: How biometrics are reimagining airport security, passenger experience, and officer efficiency
Since 9/11, air travel has operated under a heightened mandate for security—often at the expense of passenger convenience and operational efficiency. But today, with the rise of facial biometrics, airports and border agencies are proving that it’s possible to achieve world-class security and a smooth, stress-free traveler experience—while also empowering frontline officers to focus on what matters most.
This session explores how modern biometric technologies, including privacy-first solutions from iProov, are transforming the airport journey. Attendees will learn:
- How facial biometrics deliver fast, secure identity verification at every checkpoint
- The role of liveness detection in stopping fraud and deepfakes before they reach the border
- Ways biometrics reduce manual checks, streamline workflows, and enhance officer efficiency
- Real-world success stories from airports and border agencies
- How to balance strong security with privacy, consent, and traveler trust
