TSA pledges CAPPS II privacy
Transportation Security Administration (TSA) director Admiral James Loy
outlined privacy protection measures in the TSA's upcoming Computer
Assisted Passenger Prescreening System II (CAPPS II), set to replace the
flawed CAPPS currently in use as of May 2003. CAPPS II would use only four
passenger attributes to determine risk: name, address, phone, number, and
date of birth. Further, the information would not be kept in a database,
but destroyed after the passenger has traveled. CAPPS II is intended to
reduce random searches, confusion among people with names that match those
on watch lists, and what some people call racial and gender profiling. Up
to 15% of airline passengers undergo additional security screening, and the
new system should reduce that number.
