Follow TRESSPASS :The Consortium:
The TRESSPASS project includes air, mari�me and land BCPs and
travel routes that combine different modali�es by impor�ng the idea
of “Risk based” security checks and proposing an analy�c framework
for modelling risk as well as a systema�c approach of quan�fying
risk, based on a set of indicators that can accurately be measured
across all four �ers of the Integrated Border Management.
• measures undertaken in, or jointly with third countries or
service providers; • coopera�on with neighbouring countries; •
border control and counter-smuggling measures, and • control
measures within the area of free movement.
TRESSPASS is a 42 month Innova�on Ac�on star�ng in June 2018 and
ending in November 2021, with 22 partners from across Europe
forming a strong consor�um of market-leading companies, innova�ve
and highly specialized SMEs, renowned public research ins�tutes and
a substan�al cluster of opera�ons experts and End Users.
Concerning modali�es, TRESSPASS includes air, mari�me and land
(including foot, car, train, and -if it develops- hyperloop) Border
Crossing Points and specifically travel routes that combine
different modali�es. Concerning threats, this includes smuggling,
irregular immigra�on, cross border crime, and terrorism, including
threats to the transport itself it excludes other threats sich as
posed by state-actors, and it excludes bulk cargo.
Moreover, TRESSPASS includes a unique combina�on of high-impact
EU border crossing se�ngs, covering all modali�es: land, air and
mari�me and all �ers of EU’s border access control model. The
overall scope of TRESSPASS is to modernize the way the security
checks at BCPs are held out by implemen�ng the project
objec�ves:
• Develop a single cohesive risk-based border management
concept• Apply an ethics and data protec�on “by design” approach•
Include passenger trust in risk management model and perform
sensi�vity analysis and op�miza�on• Develop three pivo�ng pilot
demonstrators• Demonstrate the validity of the single cohesive
risk-based border management concept• Prepare for the further
development of this concept
The TRESSPASS solu�on consists of a suite of services offered by
the TRESSPASS Node. This node offers an enhanced situa�onal
awareness for border control prac��oners and offers an improved
risk-management coordina�on and coopera�on among them. TRESSPASS
Nodes will be deployed and integrated in every local environment of
the three pilots. From coopera�on between two or more TRESSPASS
Nodes the requested interna�onal alert system will emerge.
The TRESSPASS system will elevate the process and security to
new levels, by collec�ng data, fusing and analyzing them, making
the appropriate risk analysis and feeding the C2 system to support
the decision of the border officers. TRESSPASS will integrate a
complete architecture of Informa�on Exchange and Aler�ng services
to enable interna�onal coopera�on. These services allow the
exchange of well-defined security en��es (Risk, Alert, Anomaly,
Object, etc) and alerts among TRESSPASS nodes (airports, ports,
border crossing points, etc.)
Pilot Use Cases:
The Air BCP Pilot: October 2020Risk based border crossing at
Amsterdam Schiphol Interna�onal Airport, focusing on shaping risk
based border control with available in advance informa�on and
informa�on regarding behaviour at the airport.
The Land BCP Pilot: March 2021Land border risk based screening
within Nadbużański Regional Unit of Polish Border Guard, aiming to
introduce innova�ve concepts, for detec�on of cross border
smuggling of goods, illegal migra�on and document forgeries.
The Sea BCP Pilot: July 2021Cruise travelers risk based
screening at Piraeus Cruise Port aiming to introduce a Mari�me –
PNR to be integrated and inter-operated with Airlines PNR as to
provide a common opera�ng picture based on Risk based screening
among all competent authori�es.
