Securing Borders in 10+ Countries with an Advanced Risk Assessment System for a Travel Tech Provider
Overview.
A leading information technology provider for the air transport industry specialized in developing and implementing solutions that make air travel easier, safer, and more efficient at every stage of the journey. Its business is deeply integrated into the global air transport industry, providing critical technology and communication solutions that keep the world's air travel system functioning efficiently and securely.
The client was facing significant challenges in ensuring the security of borders and preventing the entry of suspicious travelers. Being a critical aspect of national security for many countries, it was crucial to collect and analyze intelligence on potential threats and suspicious travelers. Therefore, there was a need to build an advanced risk assessment system capable of validating traveler documents, verifying information against watch-list registries, and providing smooth allow/deny decisions for passenger boarding.
Solution.
We implemented a Data Acquisition System, which involved acquiring large volumes of traveler data from airlines, integrating risk assessment tools with government databases, and providing comprehensive metrics on border operations.
System covered:
Data Acquisition covering PNR, APIS, and other formats.
Travel Document Validation from PNR, VISA, biometrics, watch-list registries.
Compliance Assurance with immigration policies and security directives.
Risk Assessment with risk scores and alerts for allow/deny entry decisions.
The Impact.
Secured borders in 10 countries with successful implementation of the DAS solution.
Successfully took over a project in RED status from an incumbent vendor and delivered it successfully.
Reduced the implementation time by 50% with smart implementation of the Spring ROO framework.
Continuous focus on reducing technical debt and product optimization by enhancing code coverage and reducing SONAR and Klocworks violations.
