Security officers only receive limited information when an alarm is triggered during passenger or property screening at an airport security checkpoint, often lacking critical information about the cause of the alarm or where to search. Resolving the alarm requires patting-down the subject or searching the property. This limitation creates inconsistent screening outcomes based on variable officer experience or execution of protocols, and can erode confidence in scanning systems.
