A security screening and support system for a venue having a plurality of
access points includes a plurality of screening centers connected to a
central control. The plurality or screening centers are arranged so as to
be located in relation to the plurality of access points of the venue.
The screening centers collect threat samples from subjects entering the
venue, with the samples being screened for a threat signature, such as
explosives. If a subject tests positive, an alert status is sent to the
central control and a response, which is preferably randomized from a
plurality of standard operating procedures, is enacted. The central
control enables security personnel to view, monitor, respond and analyze
threat situations.
