The effectiveness of security measures vary widely. In the United States, depending on the mode of transportation, it ranges from "medium effectiveness� for airports to "low effectiveness� for maritime, rail, transit, and intermodal activities. Situational awareness and interoperability are lacking as we try to deal with both natural and man-made disasters. Regardless of the transport mode, improvements are essential if governments and corporations are to address security planning, response, and national preparedness. Transportation Security examines this problem in a comprehensive manner and addresses security-based technologies and solutions to minimize risk.
