Security incident reporting and escalation

Purpose

1.1 Automate security incident reporting and escalation workflows in international airports to improve rapid compliance, ensure airtight audit trails, facilitate centralized communication, and automate audit and notification processes for all security incidents.
1.2 Enhance real-time incident visibility and automate the routing of events across departments with automated status updates for resolution, investigation, and escalation, ensuring all steps are logged, timestamped, and accessible for later auditing and regulatory reporting.

Trigger Conditions

2.1 Automated detection of security events via integrated surveillance, access control, or manual staff submission triggers incidents.
2.2 Systematically automates report creation on threshold breaches (e.g., perimeter alarms, unauthorized access, compliance violation detection).
2.3 Manual or automated triggers from security devices, sensors, apps, or staff dashboards.
