This paper starts with a threat model for airports and uses this to derive the security requirements to motivate an open-standards based architecture for surveillance, and discusses the critical aspects of this architecture and its implementation in the IBM S3 smart surveillance system.
Abstract
As smart surveillance technology becomes a critical component in security infrastructures, the system architecture assumes a critical importance. This paper considers the example of smart surveillance in an airport environment. We start with a threat model for airports and use this to derive the security requirements. These requirements are used to motivate an open-standards based architecture for surveillance. We discuss the critical aspects of this architecture and its implementation in the IBM S3 smart surveillance system. Demo results from a pilot deployment in Hawthorne, NY are presented.
