Not only is AirportICE a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) credentialing management system, but it is designed for the specific needs of Airports. The software is not a part of the physical access control system; however, it performs many tasks typically associated with the access control system. These tasks include: Management of the privileges of cardholder accounts (status, clearances, expiration, etc.). These privileges are set in the AirportICE database then transferred to the physical access control system(s). In addition to these functions, both legacy and new physical access control systems (PACS) are enhanced with other features not typically included in a PACS. These include mass badge status changes and strike deactivation / reactivation across multiple disparate PACS.

There are several features of the AirportICE solution that improve operational efficiencies within a modern airport environment. For example, the system streamlines the data entry process by allowing applicants to pre-register. This allows users to retrieve all data for an applicant without having to enter data. Many administrative functions such as No-Fly / Selectee comparisons and STA generation and submission are also automated. AirportICE is designed to work in a shared user environment. Privileges are not set on a workstation level. Privileges are assigned to users who when logged in are granted only the privileges granted to them by system administrators. All activities of users are tracked.

AirportICE credential management software was developed for the airport community so that it meets or exceeds all relevant TSA Security Directives including compliance with 1542-04-08G and 1542-01-10F (e.g. CHRC Adjudication, Security Threat Assessments, No-Fly / Selectee Comparisons, TSC Integration, Authorized Signers / Training, 5% Lost, 25% Concessionaire, SIDA Access, etc.). The proposed software solution enables compliance with both of the above mentioned security directives as well as many other TSA 1542 security directives related to identity and credentialing. In addition to automating the comparison of No-Fly / Selectee lists and the submission of Security Threat Assessment data, the system requires that these processes occur prior to and in order to issue a credential to an applicant.

AirportICE utilizes current messaging protocols to communicate with the MKE provided TSA-approved Aviation Service Channeling Provider (DAC) at all times. AirportICE automatically retrieves results from the TSA-approved DAC and update/ populate matched results to the existing cardholder database. AirportICE automates the method of reconciling IDMS records with the current DAC.

AirportICE utilizes Microsoft SQL Server for data storage. SQL Server is an extremely reliable and secure database management system. Even so, all sensitive information like passwords, social security numbers, etc. is stored using 3DES encryption in the database. All windows services are created on the Microsoft .NET platform and utilize best practices for data security and encryption.

Intellisoft software has been successfully DIACAP (Department of Defense Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process) and Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) tested and received Certification and Accreditation (C&A) resulting in an Authority to Operate (ATO). The DOD information assurance C&A process for authorizing the operation of DOD information systems is consistent with the FISMA.

AirportICE® future proofs your security system to allow for compliance with new security directives and enable new technology to be bolted onto existing infrastructure. The software solution offered by Intellisoft is the best quality possible in the marketplace.
