Technology Liberation Front: TSA: Not Even Good at Getting it Wrong

  • Ryan Radia · 1 year ago
    Great piece. The fact that the TSA has known about the boarding pass vulnerability for years and hasn't yet patched it further reinforces the argument that TSA cares more about perceived security than actual security.

    Implementing a secure authentication system to make boarding passes tamper-resistant would cost a fair bit but wouldn't be all that complicated. (Not that I think such a system is necessary or even desirable.)
