Airguard 2 - Novel electronic seal for the Aviation industry

航空业一直面临着升级和确保现有安全措施效率的压力。每年在航空安全上花费数十亿欧元。其中一个特别值得关注的领域是国际航空运输协会（IATA）确定的飞机厨房手推车和罐的安全控制。确保人员的诚信和畅通无阻是一个重大问题。授权员工滥用凭证仍然是一个主要问题，内部盗窃和非法走私现象普遍存在，包括授权员工之间的枪支和毒品。在与客户英国航空公司（British Airways）讨论后，ASD发现了一种新型电子安全封条的市场空白，这种封条可以记录谁在何时何地打开了特定的飞机行李架。一些航空公司的股票损失率高达10%，保守估计行业平均损失率为4%，航空业在一年内损失了令人难以置信的5770万美元。航空公司蒙受的损失从两年每年80万美元到100万美元不等。这种新型的电子印章可以帮助航空公司节省数百万美元的免税货物被盗，并有助于减少安全威胁。此外，相关的软件应用程序可以提供有价值的实时智能，以自动检测这些密封手推车的模式和异常并发出警报。

The airline industry is under perpetual pressure to upgrade and ensure efficiency of existingsecurity measures. Every year billions of euros are spent on aviation security. One area wherethis is a particular concern is in the security control of aircraft galley trolleys and canisters asidentified by IATA (The International Air Transport Association). Ensuring thetrustworthiness of personnel with unimpeded access is a major problem. Misuse of credentialsby authorised employees remains a key concern with widespread internal theft and contrabandtransit including guns and drugs among authorised employees. Following discussions withtheir client British Airways (BA), ASD have identified a gap in the market for a novelelectronic security seal that can record who has opened a particular aircraft trolley, when andwhere.Some carriers have stock loss rates as high as 10% and the average industry rate isconservatively estimated to be 4% costing the aviation industry an incredible $57.7m in oneyear. Losses experienced by airlines include $800,000 a year for two years to $1 million.The novel electronic seal could help airlines save millions in stolen duty free goods and couldhelp reduce security threats. In addition, the associated software application can providevaluable and real time intelligence to automatically detect patterns and anomalies with thesealed trolleys and raise alarms.
