About the symposium

The Indo-Pacific Aviation Security Technology Symposium is a platform for U.S. companies to engage with Indo-Pacific and U.S. aviation security agencies — demonstrating solutions, showcasing technologies, and exchanging best practices that support aviation security across the region.

The two-day program includes presentations from Indo-Pacific aviation security experts, the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and U.S.-based aviation security companies, covering regulatory frameworks and compliance, TSA's Checkpoint Requirement and Planning Guide, innovations in screening equipment and processes, drone threats and countermeasures, and cybersecurity.

CyberAir's founder will speak on the cybersecurity panel, sharing perspective on capacity building, risk assessment, and public-private collaboration drawn from CyberAir's ongoing work with the TSA and ICAO CASP AP across the Indo-Pacific.
