Lawmakers Cite Vulnerabilities in Clear Airport Screening … – Bloomberg

All airport travelers in the US should “immediately” be required to undergo identity checks by the Transportation Security Administration after the discovery of vulnerabilities in the biometric vetting service operated by Clear Secure Inc., lawmakers said in a December letter. 

The Clear verification system, which provides an expedited airport screening procedure, contains unspecified “security vulnerabilities,” according to the Dec. 22 letter to the TSA from Democrat Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, then chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security, and the committee’s former top Republican, John Katko of New York.
