They implement procedures such as electronic screenings, baggage checks, and security protocols to ensure passenger and crew safety. The goal is to facilitate efficient travel while minimizing security risks. TSA works in partnership with airlines, airports, and other agencies to maintain a secure environment for travelers and transportation infrastructure.
