Abstract

The Cargo Supply Chain Integrity Technology (CSIT) Research, Development, Test and Evaluation project, jointly managed by the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) Science and Technology (S&T) Directorate develops standards and certifies systems to mitigate threats posed by the potential introduction of improvised explosive devices into cargo carried by passenger aircraft. At the direction of Congress, Public Law 110-53, “Implementing the Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007”, mandates that all 100% of all cargo shipped via passenger aircraft be screened.
