Just wanted to double check and see if my response make's sense to above question:

The aftermath of the tragic September 11th attacks in 2001 exposed critical gaps in aviation security, and there was a need to combine the multiple different federal security departments and agencies into a unified, integrated cabinet agency. The Homeland Security Act, signed into law in 2002, set up the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), 22 agencies unified under a single department with a mission to safeguard the American people (DHS, 2024). One agency under DHS that impacts commercial aviation, and the aerospace industry is the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). Created in 2001, under the Aviation and Transportation Security Act, according to the TSA (n.d.): "the mission to protect the nation's transportation systems to ensure freedom of movement for people and commerce" (para. 1).

TSA continues to play a pivotal role, transitioning from personal security corporations to a federally managed device. Commercial airlines were impacted as they had to comply with stricter policies, invest in technologies like advanced imaging technology for passenger screening, and work closely with DHS to enforce no-fly lists and other counter-terrorism measures. Looking to the future, the TSA should integrate advanced technologies that will preserve and shape aviation security, balancing efficiency & protection, such as integrating AI and biometrics. I came across an article that they have updated the credential authentication technology (CAT) to an updated CAT-2 version this year (Jacobson, 2024), which provides enhanced fraudulent ID detection capabilities while confirming traveler's identity and flight information. Incorporating advanced technologies will preserve and shape aviation security, balancing efficiency & protection.
