NOVEMBER 2022AEROSPACEDEFENSEREVIEW.COM6EditorialArecent surge in attempts of unauthorised entries and rising geopolitical tensions could be witnessed across the globe, more so in Europe due to the Ukrainian war. Considering that border security is fundamentally the first line of defence against attacks, it is increasingly becoming a critical facet of security capabilities across all European countries. To enhance border security stature, border security agencies are now utilizing state-of-the-art and contemporary technologies, such as the Internet of Things, Blockchain, Machine Learning, Data Analytics, and more.A recent Accenture survey of world leaders within the border security agencies across nine countries, that included Finland, France, Germany, Norway, and the UK, highlighted that the majority of the countries are attempting to adopt next-generation technologies to mitigate border security risks. Despite the strong acceptance, many border security agencies have not yet deployed these technologies due to substantial implementation challenges. Some of these challenges include fast-changing operating environments, usage of legacy systems, and an aging workforce, which are potentially posing threat to digital transformation strategies. Helping such agencies effectively implement these technologies are border security solution providers.This edition of Aerospace and Defense Review brings the spotlight on the key developments in Europe's border security domain and how security agencies are leveraging contemporary technologies to mitigate rising security threats.
