Philippine airline confirmed that a cybersecurity breach had affected their third-party IT provider for their frequent flyer program. Members’ names, birth dates, nationality, gender, joining date, tier level, and points balance were among the information compromised. The airline advised members to change their passwords immediately. The aviation industry, which utilizes numerous technological solutions to provide its clients with the best user experience, must show the same sensitivity in detecting and responding to cyber threats. In this context, some recommendations for the aviation industry to improve its ability to predict, detect, respond to, and mitigate cyber threats are

Employee education in the subject of cyber security, as well as equipping them with the necessary high-capacity tools

Identify the supply chain risk points

Keeping data transmission between the ground and the aircraft secure

Secure access to network devices and systems

• In January 2010, police arrested an intoxicated man with a knife who had climbed over the security fence at the Los Angeles International Airport. A month later, police arrested two more airport fence climbers. Another determined but disturbed individual repeatedly climbed the fence at LAX and was taken into custody several times. In 2012, a stranded jet skier swam to shore, climbed an 8-foot fence, and walked across two runways past security cameras and motion detectors at JFK International Airport in New York The federal government could oblige the nation’s airports to build more formidable barriers, cover them with more sophisticated alarms and cameras, and deploy more security personnel to increase the frequency of patrols and respond immediately to suspected intrusions. From the perspective of costs versus risks, it is not clear whether it makes sense to do this at all 450 commercial airports across the country.

AAA stands for

Authentic - Documents are authentic and not fake traveling with a fake passport could lead to legal consequences

Authorised - this means that anyone that is working alongside the aircraft for example ground personnel must have the correct ID to prove they have been aurthorised to be so

DBS checks would have also been required and been accounted for for each person prior being given the ID to ensure this individual hasn’t been involved in any crimson activity and that they don’t have bad intentions in working alongside the A/C.

Accountable - That all passengers are accounted for onboard the A/C and if there is too many PAX on board or a missing PAX the flight must not depart until an investigation has taken place..

Bags must not travel onboard the A/C if the PAX misses the flight.

At check in

It is extremely important that PSA who are checking in PAX are able to check passports and look for any obvious marks that a passport could be fake for 3 reasons

1)Visa’s must be valid

2)Passports and tickets are 3)authentic... real not fake!

Fake passports can be very common and if found attempting to travel with one as this is a legal document you could face serious consequences

In the baggage hall

Bags that are in transfer from one flight to another are not to be loaded onto connecting flights unless the PAX has collected them from baggage belt and re-checked the bag in via flight connections desk. This is all airside so that PAX will not have to queue up and clear immigration and customs.

All transfer bags are accounted for

and authorised to be loaded onto

another flight

Loading the A/C

Loaders are employed to load and unload bags to and from the A/C they must have had a DBS’ check  prior to being allocated an airside pass.

This is mainly because they working in sensitive , restricted areas of the airport they must be trusted and checked to ensure there are no bad intentions .

Loaders are authorised to be airside and have been checked

Dispatch of the A/C

When the Aircraft has been loaded with all of the passenger bags and the cargo and all of the passengers there  boarding cards must match the amount of passengers on-board (TOB)

All passengers that are  onboard must be accounted for to ensure no one is missing and if they are the bag/s should be removed

Describe search and screening facilities for passengers, baggage for the cabin and baggage for the hold 

# data[].attributes.body
‘search and screening’ - this is where the security will look and search you for any weapons or dangerous / banned items that you might be carrying that could go towards being part of a possible device with the intent to kill , endanger or hurt innocent passengers at the airport
There is such severe security to prevent and minimise any such items passing through airside way onto the aircraft

Search and screening is The process is when the passenger will place their personal belongings into trays to go through the x-ray screening. Phones must be placed on their own and laptops must be turned on to prove that they are working and have not been tampered with as a way to smuggle through illegal material.

These machines are so expensive and very good at what they do if a travelling passenger does have bad intentions and has an object hidden on there persons this machine will show the item up in the screen leaving it to security  to the persue the item and prevent the passenger from travelling any further

Documentation inspection

This check is a requirement and it will require a memebr of staff / check in agent to inspect the passenger travelling passport to ensure validity I.e photo and date and the the name corrospondds with the name on your ticket if an agent is in doubt they are always free to ask upon fellow memebr of staff for help or advice

Security identification passes for air / ground personnel

There are plenty of roles in the airport scene that are airside. Which is why all stag members must have id or staff badge

A staff members ID badge will confirm:

Name of employer (company)

Staff members name

Which area they are entitled to access (airside or landside with a colour coding)

A recent photo will be also featured, just like a passport photo, no hats are permitted

Code/swipe areas and how and how and why these need to be protected

When staff access restricted areas at the airport they must ensure that they do not:

Leave the doors open for passengers to walk through

Ensure that no one tailgates through with being seen Not to lend their ID cards to others

Not to give out passwords or codes to access restricted areas.

Security questions and check and why PAX need to have a serious approach

When passengers are checking in for a flight the passenger service agent must ask the series of regulated questions relating to security..

1) Did you pack your bags yourself?

2)Has anyone given you anything to carry?

3)Have you left your bags unattended at any point ?

4)Do you have any dangerous items in your luggage ?

Passengers must have a serious approsch as if something is to be found in there luggage that should not be there that passenger will face the consequences of this possibly not be able to fly and my face legal action

What is rush bag and what security applies

Rush Bag

Rush bags belong to passengers who have missed the check in time. 40 minutes before the flight departs the check in will close.

Any passengers who arrive after this time could be permitted to try and make the flight but they have to take their hold luggage with them.. This means that they will have to put the suitcases through the screening etc.

Carry their bags to the gate.. This will be an anxious time for these passengers and they may not make the flight..

The PSA will have called the gate and asked if the ramp agent could ask the Captain if they will take them.

Loaders are on hand to take the suitcases when the passengers arrive at the gate..

What security applies

The airport has layers of security procedures in place that all staff must follow.

It is important that protocols are understood by staff members and that these are in place to maintain security at the airport and onboard A/C.

Strict procedures in place for security must be followed and upheld by all staff members. This keeps the industry safe and a deterrent from further attacks from terrorism.

ANTI-terrorism crime and security Act 2001

ANTI-terrorism crime and security Act 2001

# data[].attributes.body
The anti terrorism , crime and security act 2001 is an act of parliment of the united kingdom formally introduced into Parliament on 19 November 2001, two months after the terrorist attacks in the United States on 11 September. ... It has since been replaced by the Prevention of Terrorism Act 2005

Purpose
The main purpose of the Anti-Terrorism, Crime and Security Act 2001 is to ensure good security of dangerous substances that may be targeted or used by terrorists. The list of dangerous pathogens and toxins (biological agents) that fall within the scope of the Act

There are many substance that are harmful to humans if exposes are

eboloa virus , caused by a virus caught from wild animals. It spreads from person to person when you touch infected body fluids, such as semen, saliva, blood, poo, pee and vomit.

Everglades virus , The virus circulates among rodents and vector mosquitoes and sometimes infects humans, causing a febrile illness with occasional neurological manifestations.

Monkey pox , is an infectious disease caused by the monkeypox virus. It can cause a painful rash, enlarged lymph nodes and fever. Most people fully recover, but some get very sick. Anyone can get monkey pox  Apr 2023

I think that you can agree that it is important to keep harmful toxins out of the hands of the wrong people because these people will have the wrong iterations and could seriously harm innocent people.

Any such companies that may use harmful and dangerous chemicals and substances are subjected under this act to ensure that security is high to prevent any terrorists from gaining access to acquire such agents

The  act reviews the potential threat of chemical warfare from certain countries

For example ..

Between 1993 and 1995, the Japanese cult organisation Aum Shinrikyo tried to manufacture biological agents including anthrax and botulinum toxin. Aum Shinrikyo members released sarin on the Tokyo metro in 1995 killing 12 people.

Five people died when envelopes containing anthrax powder were sent to addresses in the US in 2001. Suspected anthrax contamination at this time also caused considerable social disruption and decontamination costs.

In January 2003 Police and Security Service action disrupted attempts by an Algerian cell in London to make the toxin ricin.

The anti terrorism and security act 2001 also gives those of authority the chance to
1) detain individuals based on suspicion without fully charging them if suspected to be involved in extreme terrorism
2) the truth to freeze any financial goods this may include money or any possible bank accounts that can be used to fund terrorism for example the buying of equipment
3) counter terrorism by this I mean it allows different countries to share information about other suspects linked to terrorism if it will help prevent it
