Genetec™ Airport Badging Solution (ABS) is a complete airport ID badge management solution for Security Center Synergis™. It manages the badge application process from the collection of the applicant's personal information to the issuance of the physical badge. The process includes background checks by relevant authorities and the definition and enforcement of the airport's internal screening rules.
Characteristics of Genetec™ Airport Badging Solution
- The solution has been developed to match the standard information format required by authorities.
- The solution is made available as a plugin in Security Center.
- The plugin has been designed based on the standard information requirements while also being in a normalized format that matches the requirements of the validation and verification authorities.
- The plugin relies on a web service to share personal data with the validation and verification authorities.
- The current version of the plugin supports sharing data with the Department of Homeland Security for Criminal History Records Check (CHRC) and with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) for Security Threat Assessment (STA).
- CHRC requires fingerprints to be shared with the authorities, while STA does not.
