Course introduction

A risk-based, supply chain approach to security strikes the right balance between ensuring the flow of global trade and securing air cargo.

Over the last 25 years, acts of terror targeted toward commercial aircraft have caused a wholesale change in both passenger and cargo screening requirements. The Lockerbie incident in 1988 resulted in the UK development of the principle of supply chain security – the application of security controls all along the supply chain and the validation of each actor of the supply chain. 9/11 reinforced awareness of the vulnerability of the aviation industry and led the U.S. to establish requirements for 100% screening of cargo on passenger aircraft. The 2010 Yemen incident brought more focus on in-bound cargo/extraterritorial measures and highlighted the importance of cargo data – cooperation between customs and aviation security authorities. While the revised regulations have improved security, they have resulted in a patchwork of differing and often redundant requirements. This in turn has impacted the industry with greatly increased cost and sometimes limited ability to respond to new requirements.
