00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.291
[SILENT]

00:00:03.291 --> 00:00:08.208
NARRATOR: Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks
aviation security has remained a critical

00:00:08.208 --> 00:00:12.041
focus for the DHS Science and Technology
Directorate (or “S&T”)—

00:00:12.041 --> 00:00:14.250
DHS’s research and development arm.

00:00:14.250 --> 00:00:20.458
S&T, working with partners, has placed
special emphasis on strengthening
the tools, technology and training

00:00:20.458 --> 00:00:25.625
to protect the flying public, focusing on
Detection, Mitigation and Prevention

00:00:25.625 --> 00:00:28.458
Explosives can be hidden almost anywhere.

00:00:28.458 --> 00:00:35.125
S&T researches and funds programs to
develop new, high-speed aviation
explosive detection systems…

00:00:35.125 --> 00:00:40.000
and advanced canine team training…
and matches industry …
with government users.

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.166
Preparation is key to any successful
operation, so S&T deploys

00:00:44.166 --> 00:00:48.458
new technologies to improve security
personnel training and performance.

00:00:48.458 --> 00:00:53.291
S&T also addresses explosive mitigation
by evaluating countermeasures …

00:00:53.291 --> 00:00:57.625
and sets standards, then creates,
and tests blast resistant materials.

00:00:57.625 --> 00:01:01.875
S&T partnerships have a force-multiplier
effect on prevention.

00:01:01.875 --> 00:01:09.083
Through collaboration, S&T-operated labs,
U.S. National Laboratories, F.B.I.
explosives experts and others…

00:01:09.083 --> 00:01:15.083
explore, develop, create and share
resources across the entire
Homeland Security Enterprise.

00:01:15.083 --> 00:01:18.833
S&T is leading the way to a more secure
aviation future!

00:01:18.833 --> 00:01:22.916
The men and women of the Department
of Homeland Security, Science and
Technology Directorate

00:01:22.916 --> 00:01:26.250
never stop thinking about the safety
of the American people….

00:01:26.250 --> 00:01:27.250
S&T…

00:01:27.250 --> 00:01:28.250
Many Missions.

00:01:28.250 --> 00:01:29.250
One goal.

00:01:29.250 --> 00:01:32.583
Mobilizing innovation to
secure the nation.
