Terrorist screening technology has certainly improved over the years, but in what ways?
The need for terrorist screening technology has become increasingly more apparent: from the September 11th, 2001 attacks to more recent events like those in Paris on November 13th, 2015, there have been numerous tragedies impacting the international community as a whole. It’s no surprise, then, that there has also been major developments in terrorist screening technology. Not only have advances in technology given us a better standard of living, but they have also afforded us an increased sense of safety and security.
Increases in Intelligence Budgets
The U.S. government has spent even more and more money on intelligence and technology development. Something like flying has become more restrictive than ever, whereas technologies like facial recognition systems and other advanced imaging systems have improved security by massive amounts. This large budget is also dedicated towards foreign hacking projects and surveillance of phone or internet usage.
Militarized Counter-Terrorist Tech
New military technology has been developed so our troops are better equipped to deal with something like an improvised explosive device. They have also been given better methods of detecting chemical, biological, and nuclear materials or weapons. On top of this, we’ve developed unmanned aircraft like drones to reduce the danger in running certain missions.
Privatized Terrorist Screening Technology
There are more private security companies than ever that have dedicated themselves to helping satisfy the need for more terrorist screening technology development. This includes us at Gatekeeper Security, where we believe our tech, like our DriverCam, can help make the world a safer place.
