There are security check points in almost all transport terminals in the world these days. If you would like to get through those checks like the frequent flyer's dothere are a couple of things to think about to make the process quicker and easier but plan ahead don't try to do it all whilst stood in line.
Empty your pockets of loose change. Wallets and cell phones should go into one of those little bins they provide also. Remember heavy watches, bracelets, and belt buckles can set of the alarm, so take those off, and stow them in your carry-on bag before you get to the front of the line or put them in the bins.
Consolidate books and snacks so you won't have as many things to gather back together once you've been screened.
In the United States, you have to take your shoes off. Slip-on shoes will come off and go on faster. Zippers and laces will slow you down... have your shoes untied or unzipped before you get to the front of the line. (Take care when you put them back on that you don't trip before you're put back together!)
Have your one quart/one liter plastic bag with your liquids, creams and gels out of your carry-on, and put it in a bin. Remember each liquid should be 3 ounces/100 ml or less, right? There shouldn't be any loose liquids in your carry-on bag. If you have "medically necessary" liquids or baby food, in most countries, those can be outside of your plastic bag allowance, but you must notify a screening officer.
You are now approaching the screening area and it is a good idea to approach it in an organized manner.
First put your shoes, coat and your carry-on "personal item" (usually your smaller bag) in the first bin. They will come through the x-ray first, and you can be putting them back on while you're waiting for your other items to be screened.
It is more common now for people to carry laptop computers o to the plane. Take the laptop out of the carry case and put the case in the first bin so you can be ready to put the laptop back with the minimum of fuss.
You're going to read this, and next time you travel, you're going to move through that security checkpoint with a plan... and they'll think you're an expert traveler no matter whether you travel often or not.
