    Security in Aviation

    • Security refers to the protection of international civil aviation against acts of unlawful interference.
    • Acts of unlawful interference include: • Illegal seizure of aircraft in flight or on the ground • Hijacking of aircraft or taking of hostages on board or at airports • Forced entry into an aircraft, airport, or aeronautical facility • Introduction of weapons or hazardous items on board an aircraft or at an airport for criminal purposes • Communicating false information that compromises the safety of an aircraft in flight or on the ground, or the safety of passengers, crew, airport staff, and the general public.

    Key Concepts

    • SECURITY = physical security
    • SAFETY = operational safety
    • The UK differentiates between SAFETY and SECURITY, but this distinction is not commonly made in other languages.
