Unmasking Mobile Threats
Person-Borne Explosives Detection Dogs (PB-EDDs) are explosives detection canines (EDC)* trained to detect and trail explosive odors – on a moving person – to their source. PB-EDDs are odor obedient and display a non-aggressive response to target odors to effectively search professional sporting venues, transportation hubs (airports, subways, train and bus stations), and crowded events. They integrate into existing security infrastructure – adding mobility, flexibility, and capability to commercial security and law enforcement officers.
Our PB-EDDs are trained in social atmospheres that mirror operational deployments. They are acclimated to heavy foot traffic, allowing them to imperceptibly scan large crowds as they enter a venue, arena, or transit hub. Our evidence-based canine and Handler training curriculum ensures PB-EDD teams are certified (by a third party) for both traditional explosives detection (static locations objects), as well as for detecting explosive odors on moving individuals. This means our PB-EDD teams can be used for pre-event venue, employee, and cargo screening, as well as personnel screening leading up do, during, and following an event.
AN INDUSTRY FIRST, at the request of the Department of Homeland Security, K2 was integral in the development of Person-Borne technology working in partnership with Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Lab and the University of Maryland.

Applications
PB-EDD teams are always visible and normally moving. These teams can be a stand alone layer of security and serve as a force multiplier. They are optimal when teamed with law enforcement or security officers – especially when used in conjunction with Human Behavioral Training.
Our teams are trained to integrate with a partner’s current security tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP), whether a private security company or local law enforcement.
