Narcotics Interdiction & Passenger Security Risk Assessment
Behavior Analysis and Observational Techniques
Basic Training
Cayman Islands
November 14 – 18, 2011
How to detect balloon swallowers (Internal Swallower / Internal Carrier), and techniques used by passengers to smuggle narcotics concealed in bags, cargo, and on their bodies (Narcotics Body Carriers). Effective techniques in intercepting narcotics at Airports, Ports, and Transportation Terminals by Observing and Analyzing the Deceptive Behavior of the Narcotic Smugglers.
Narcotics Interdiction and Behavior Analysis
Observational Techniques and Behavior Analysis, known as Behavior Profiling, for Customs Narcotics Interdiction at Airports, Sea Ports, and other ports of entry targets Drug Smugglers, even when hiding among the crowd of passengers. Defining the thin line, between truth and deception, in a setting where you are observing dozens or even hundreds of passengers at a time.
Passenger Security Screening
Rover Concept – Focused directly on the greatest risk, “The Human Factor,” this predictive passenger screening for Law enforcement agencies brings practical application to Customs Enforcement, and Anti Terrorism initiatives. Customs agents learn to understand Deceptive Behavior Indicators (DBI), to make observations of Passengers in a Terminal Setting or while performing other airport duties. Behavior Profiling can increase the officer’s ability to identify, evaluate, and effectively communicate across the department or while interacting with other security or Law Enforcement agencies.

Passenger Security Screening – AVSEC
3 Day Course
Dynamic and practical Training program for Officers, security checkpoint supervisors, and surveillance CCTV operators, provides the frame work in the detection of unlawful and criminal activities thru a logical, systematic and simple Passenger Screening Process. Officers make observations of Passengers in a Terminal Setting in what is normally called Behavior Profiling to identify, evaluate, and effectively communicate Deceptive Behavior Indicators (DBI) across the department or while interacting with other security or Law Enforcement agencies.
Behavior Detection Training Modules
Observation of Behavior in Passenger Screening is divided in three main modules:
- Terrorism in Aviation. Limitations of technology, threat analysis, means of aggression, current threats, developing trends, legal limitations, Aviation Security Directives, Security codes, regulations, and best practices (AVSEC & TSA).
- Behavior Profiling Dynamics for officers in a terminal setting including airport access areas, lobby, check-in counters, transit lounges, and boarding gates. Officers, security checkpoint supervisors, and surveillance CCTV operators are trained to identify Deceptive Behavior Indicators (DBI), communication dynamics, verbal and non-verbal symptoms of deception, interviewing techniques for non-law enforcement officers, question formulation, and screening passengers.
- Observation Techniques. Analyzing supportive information for profiling, including airline tickets, passports, other documentation, document forgery, intelligence gathering, interagency communication, and the application of the Rover Concept to Aviation Security.
Two versions of this course are available, one for Law enforcement and Government authorities, and the other for Non Law Enforcement agencies that share security responsibilities within the Transportation Industry.

Airline Security Training
Airline Security Training and Passenger Screening
Airline Security training has evolved since the Terrorist attacks of 9/11 and a greater emphasis has been placed on Observation Techniques, known as “Behavior Profiling.” Observation Techniques can spot Deceptive Behavior displayed by a Passenger during the Security Screening process, and can lead the Airline Security Officer to determine if additional screening is necessary.
Observation Techniques Training require a simple, logical, sequential, and systematic approach to learning the observation and application of Behavior in an Airline terminal setting. For officers responsible for Airline Security this means the understanding of Human Behavior in an Airline Terminal, gaining the ability to select passengers based on Deceptive Behavior indicators, and being able to verbalize their observations with greater detail and confidence. Knowing that what they observe presents a risk to the security of the airline and the aviation system.
Behavior Observation Training for Airline Security personnel
When we consider that 99% of the traveling public is not involved in an illegal activity that requires action on the part of the Airline Security Officer, it is easy to see why the public becomes frustrated with the 100% percent inspection that takes place now during the Passenger Security Screening. Airline Security remains a mechanical process and only limited steps have been taken to understand the advantages of Behavior Observation. Training and the development of new procedures will make this a viable option in Airline Security. Behavior Profiling is the first step towards passenger security in knowing and understanding how the perpetrator behaves in an Airline terminal.
Training how “Deceptive Behavior” is recognized, identified, and communicated across all groups responsible for Airline Security during the screening of passenger requires a common terminology between the Airline Security, Airport Security, Aviation Security, Ground Security Coordinators, and Law Enforcement. Training on Behavior Observation Techniques in an Airline Terminal Setting can improve Passenger Security, expedite Passenger Screening, and improve the customer experience when properly implemented, but ultimately, it is the training and constant adaptation of the Airline Security codes and regulations to include and recognize the application of Behavior Observation Techniques as a solution to Airline Security.

Deceptive Behavior and Airport Security
OBSERVATIONAL TECHNIQUES ROLE IN AVIATION SECURITY
Body Language, facial expressions, and basic communication are just some of the observations needed by a skilled Aviation, Airline or Airport Security Officer to determine if the person in front of them is attempting to bypass the security process, smuggle something onboard an aircraft, or is travelling with false documents. Since 9/11, the science of detecting and sorting out behavior, from the nervous but innocent to the deceptive and threatening behavior has gained respect among law-enforcement officials and Airport Security Agencies particularly as a way to prevent terrorism.
Behavior Observation in an Airport Terminal Setting
The Observation of Behavior during the Passenger Security Screening Process requires a structured program geared to the detection and interception of “deceptive behavior,” that works as well on a drug smuggler, a terrorist, or other criminals that utilize the Aviation system. This system needs to be simple, logical and methodical. It needs to avoid “Racial Profiling”, and focus on “deceptive behavior” or Tell Tale signs and indicators that can be observed, recognized, and verbalized in the carrying out of their Airport security duties.
The following versions are available, one for Law Enforcement and Government Authorities, and the other for Non Law Enforcement Agencies that share security responsibilities within the Aviation Industry.

Behavior Analysis Techniques
The Observation of Behavior and the Techniques necessary to analyze the Behavior displayed by an alleged perpetrator or suspect is the key to effective Law Enforcement, and is crucial for Passenger Screening and Passenger Security. The ability to recognize Deceptive Behavior not only during the interview process, where an officer can focus on the subject, where he/she knows the facts surrounding the case, but on the field as the officer comes in contact with the general public and is not in a controlled environment, requires a whole new set of skills.
Behavior Analysis Techniques for officers responsible for Airport Security, Port Security, Bus and Rail Security requires an understanding of Human Behavior in a Terminal Setting, the ability to select passengers based on Deceptive Behavior, known as “Behavior Profiling,” and an understanding of the current rules and regulations that guide the security of the transportation system.
Behavior Analysis Techniques and Transportation Security
Knowing and understanding how the perpetrator behaves in a bus, train, sea port, or airport terminal is the first step towards passenger security. When we consider that 99% of the traveling public is not involved in an illegal activity that requires action on the part of the officer, Interviewing and Interrogation Techniques are wasted and create friction and frustration on both the officers and the traveling public, when they are more useful later in the security process.
How “Deceptive Behavior” is recognized, identified, and communicated across all groups responsible for the security of the passenger gives ”Behavior Profiling” a new meaning and defines the ground work for Behavior Analysis Techniques. This process requires a common terminology between the Airline Security, Airport Security, Port Security, Ground Security, Transportation Security, and Law Enforcement. This concept has slowly gained the acceptance and inclusion into the regulations and codes that guide Transportation Security.
Behavior Analysis Techniques require a common language based on “Deceptive Behavior” for all stake holders in Transportation Security, taking in consideration communication among Law Enforcement and non Law Enforcement groups. Behavior Analysis Techniques in a Ground, Port, and Airport Terminal Setting can improve Passenger Security, and expedite Passenger Screening. Ultimately, it is the constant adaptation of the Transportation Security codes and regulations to include and recognize the application of Behavior Analysis Techniques in Transportation Security.
Improving Border Security
Cayman Islands Government – 30 November 2007
Border security in the Cayman Islands has been strengthened with the training of 23 officers in the use of observational techniques and behavioural analysis. A group of 18 immigration officers, three members of the Royal Cayman Islands Police Service, and two officers from HM Prisons Northward have been trained in the science of utilising observational techniques and behavioural analysis to identify passengers who could pose potential security risk at the island’s port of entries.
Chief Immigration Officer Franz Manderson said that such training is relevant in a time of heightened security globally. He said that in today’s environment officers had to be routinely prepared to respond to potential threats to border security whether at the Islands’ airports or at the seaports. The training is effective in “streamlining passenger inspection flow by identifying with increased speed and accuracy that minute percentage of individuals who may require closer scrutiny, detection and apprehension.”
