Passenger Data Protection in Automated Check-In Platforms: The Role of ISO Certification
Introduction Automated check-in platforms have transformed air travel, offering speed and convenience to passengers. However, these platforms also collect and process vast amounts of sensitive data—names, passport details, travel history, and biometric identifiers. Protecting this information is essential, and ISO certification helps aviation stakeholders build trust through robust data security measures.
