Frost & Sullivan Analyst Briefing: Homeland Security to Attract Improved usage of Automated Decision Support System

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Aug. 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost & Sullivan's Aerospace & Defense Practice in Asia Pacific (http://www.defense.frost.com) will host a complimentary analyst briefing via webinar on the importance of real-time automation and decision support systems for security technologies on 29 August 2012 at 11:00 hrs (GMT+08:00hrs) Singapore time.

The aviation industry in Asia Pacific has always enjoyed growth over the past decade. The growth of passenger traffic, aided by the mushrooming of Low Cost Carriers, has put pressure on governments and airlines to streamline inefficient security procedures that has resulted in lengthy queues and long waiting times, sometimes causing flight delays.

To cope with the growing demands and convenience of air travel while maintaining heightened security checks, e-Passports, e-Visa and e-Gates are being introduced by most countries in Asia Pacific. Scanning and surveillance equipment are also being integrated into border control systems at different airports.

Consultant, Aerospace & Defense Practice of Frost & Sullivan, Ravikumar Madavaram, says, "Automation and decision support systems are the buzz words for the future. More countries are likely to adopt national ID programs and electronic passports in APAC. This is expected to trigger huge spending on automated systems at airports and border control points."

This analyst briefing will look at how the increase of traffic and pressure to decrease wait times have increased the need for automated decision making systems; the changing dynamics of homeland security in different countries; which countries are more likely to adopt electronic gates for immigration; and the systems used by immigration professionals to decrease wait time.

This briefing will benefit technology providers for border security, airport security, government agencies and security agencies.

Join us as Ravi discusses how real-time automation and decision support systems are key differentiators for security technologies. This will be followed by a live question-and-answer session.
