The given research outlines the effect of biometric tactics on the security and safety measures of the aviation industry. It has been established that, after the incident of 9/11, the security of the passengers and that of the country through iation has become the prime focus of the government and that of the aviation players as well. The research is carried to identify the relationship between the biometric technology and the security and safety measures/performance of the airlines. (Shapiro, 2009)
Under the particular research, 5 airlines are gauged to understand the impact of such technological measures on the airline. Apart from this, the secondary data along with an interview technique has been used to develop a better implementation plan for future success of the aviation industry. In addition to this, the convenience sampling has been used in order to gauge the random dataset easily, due to tie limitation.

The Impact Of Biometric Technology On Avaition Security And Safety Harvard Case Solution & Analysis
Introduction
The emerging challenges of today’s world are mostly in terms of aviation security. Aviation security has become a key challenge for the majority of the countries due to globalization, ease in transportation and increase in air-traffic. According to the US transportation Security Administration (TSA), the average number of air travelers is 708 million, in which, 2653 fire-arms in hand carries were detected at airport security points across the US. These activities have increased by 16% since 2014.
However, the main reason of such activities is an increasing need of aviation security system after 9/11, MH370 and recently, the Brussels attack by the IS, which has forced the United States’ government to put efforts to improve the airport security.
Many governments around the world suggested Biometric verification systems as a feasible technology to counter the act of terrorism by more accurately and precisely identifying the travelers.
Background
Recently, the term airport security is becoming very popular; as many countries are adopting the multimodal security system that scans eyes, fingerprints and faces to make the security firm intact without any breaches. Recently, in United Arab Emirates, the Ministry of Interior has announced the launch of Multi-Model biometric screening systems, which encourages the residents of UAE to record them in the country’s bio-data to enjoy free immediate access through e-gates, while non-residents will be subjected to Iris Verification(Chesbrough, 2007).
Multi-Model screening systems are much more deployed in other countries’ airports like Qatar and Barcelona. The solution to the management of this technology varies from self-service to management by the airport. There are also many airports that are experimenting with othersolutions: For example, the United States Customs is testing fingerprints and Iris scanning in Mexican borders that would verify when a person leaves the country or the Silicon Valley’s Mineta Airport is piloting fingerprint and Iris scanners.
Furthermore, the number of travelers is increasing day by day due to which, screening at airports is also turning automatic in order to offer speedy, efficient, secure air travel. Smart-gates, eGates and self-service Kiosks are being introduced and the expected revenue generated from these means will exceed $1.2 billion by 2020.............
