A full-body scanner that the TSA hopes can speed up airport security checkpoints must go back to the drawing board for software to protect the privacy of travelers being scanned.
This image shows how the Thruvision scanner can scan multiple travelers at an airport to help speed up the security checkpoints. The Transportation Security Administration says the Thruvision scanner needs"enhanced privacy software."
The March 26 document was posted on a public website, but many details were redacted, including the name of the manufacturer and the cost of adding the privacy filter. The scanner doesn’t violate travelers’ privacy or show details of a person’s anatomy, Thruvision Americas Vice President Kevin Gramer said.
Three years later, Congress adopted legislation requiring that all full-body scanners used at U.S. airports include privacy software filters that keep the devices from showing details of a traveler’s body on the screens monitored by the TSA.
