TSA (Transportation Security Administration)

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is a U.S. government agency responsible for ensuring the security of travelers in airports and on various transportation systems. Established after the September 11 attacks, the TSA implements security measures, including passenger screening, baggage checks, and the use of advanced technology, to prevent threats like terrorism. They work to balance efficient travel with safety, often causing travelers to go through security checkpoints before flights. The TSA's goal is to protect the public while facilitating safe and secure travel for everyone.
