Labor Day travel in the United States exceeded 2019 levels, marking the first time the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) screened more passengers on a given holiday than in pre-pandemic years.

Make your list and check it twice: by prioritizing authentication, eliminating passwords, deploying MFA and focusing on user experience, retail enterprise security leaders can ensure that hackers only get a lump of coal in their stockings.
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) announced that holiday travel should not be impacted by the employee vaccine mandate, as approximately 93% of TSA employees are now vaccinated against COVID-19.
