BigBear.ai has achieved a key milestone in AI airport security screening after securing Dutch national approval. The approval bolsters its presence within highly regulated aviation environments. Furthermore, it illustrates the increasing use of AI-based security technology.
Approval was granted by the National Coordinator for Counterterrorism and Security of the Netherlands. This was done by TNO which is a renowned research body that conducted the testing process. It therefore means that Pangiam Threat Detection adhered to APIDS Standard 1.
This test was conducted together with the SureScan Corporation’s DETECT 1000 CT scanning system. This represents the first phase in the certification process. Additionally, BigBear.ai is continuing to conduct tests through other certification organizations. Pangiam Threat Detection supports AI airport security screening with advanced capabilities. It analyzes 3D CT scans of cabin baggage in near real time. Consequently, it identifies potential threats quickly and accurately. Security officers receive alerts for prohibited items without delay.
“For aviation security operators, trust is critical when introducing automation in regulated, high-consequence environments,” said Kevin McAleenan, CEO of BigBear.ai. “This approval is an important validation of Pangiam Threat Detection and of our focus on delivering mission-ready AI that supports officers and supervisors as screening operations become more automated and operationally demanding.”
