32 cards. Read the term and the definition here. The deck at the top of this page is optional.
- ICAO Annex 17
- The international Standard and Recommended Practice instrument on civil aviation security; its Standards bind Contracting States, which must notify differences.
- ICAO Doc 8973
- The ICAO Security Manual providing guidance on implementing Annex 17; it explains methods but creates no binding obligation by itself.
- National Civil Aviation Security Programme
- The State-level programme mandated by Annex 17 that sets security policy, measures, and responsibilities, and from which aerodrome and operator programmes derive.
- Competent authority role
- The State body that sets AVSEC policy, approves programmes, certifies screeners, audits compliance, and enforces corrective action at aerodromes.
- Aerodrome operator accountability
- The operator is accountable for the Aerodrome Security Programme, access control, perimeter protection, and coordination of all entities operating at the aerodrome.
- Aerodrome Security Committee
- A committee chaired by the aerodrome operator that coordinates police, carriers, handlers, and air traffic services in implementing the Aerodrome Security Programme.
- Aerodrome Security Programme
- The risk-based written programme defining measures, responsibilities, resources, and review cycle for security at a specific aerodrome, approved by the competent authority.
- Contingency plan triggers
- Pre-defined conditions that activate a security contingency plan, naming the decision authority and the required evacuation, shelter, or search actions.
- Security restricted area
- The area where screened persons and cleared items are protected from unauthorised interference, separated from landside by a controlled boundary.
- Sterilisation of restricted area
- The procedure confirming that no unauthorised persons or prohibited items remain in the security restricted area before departing traffic is processed.
- Access permit control
- Issuance of access authorisation only on operational need, with defined validity, display rules, revocation, and recovery of credentials on termination.
- Screening objective
- To prevent prohibited items from entering the security restricted area or aircraft by applying systematic and random checks to persons, baggage, cargo, mail, and stores.
- Known consignor
- An entity approved to originate cargo under secure conditions, enabling the consignment to be treated as screened within the secure supply chain.
- Screener certification
- Formal recognition that a screener has met initial and recurrent training and competency assessment standards, withdrawable on failure.
- Unlawful interference
- An act such as hijacking, sabotage, armed attack, bomb threat, or intrusion that endangers civil aviation security and requires an emergency response.
- Bomb threat decision tree
- A structured response sequence: evaluate credibility, search, decide evacuation or shelter, and declare all-clear only after search completion.
- Single accountable commander
- The principle that one person directs an incident response, preventing conflicting instructions among responding agencies and the operator.
- Vigilance decrement
- The decline in detection performance during prolonged monitoring tasks, managed through rotation, breaks, and unpredictable testing.
- Insider threat indicators
- Observable behaviours such as unusual access attempts, undue interest in security procedures, or personal stress that warrant reporting and review.
- Just culture
- A reporting environment where honest errors are not punished but deliberate violations remain sanctionable, encouraging disclosure of security concerns.
- ADDIE model
- An instructional design cycle of analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation used to build and revise AVSEC training.
- Measurable learning objective
- A statement combining an observable action verb, the conditions of performance, and the standard of acceptable performance.
- Training needs analysis
- The process comparing required competencies defined by the Aerodrome Security Programme with current competence to identify training gaps.
- Assessment validity
- The extent to which an assessment measures the intended learning objective rather than unrelated knowledge or skill.
- Assessment reliability
- The consistency of assessment results across different assessors, occasions, and equivalent candidates.
- Evaluation levels
- Measures of training effectiveness covering learner reaction, learning achieved, on-the-job behaviour, and operational results.
- Instructor competency components
- Subject knowledge, facilitation skill, assessment skill, and professional conduct, maintained through observation and recurrent development.
- Risk equation
- Risk is the product of likelihood and consequence; controls reduce one or both, leaving a residual risk that must be accepted.
- Residual risk acceptance
- Documented approval by an accountable manager that remaining risk after controls is tolerable, with owner and review date recorded.
- Audit evidence standard
- Compliance is demonstrated by records and observation rather than assertion; the programme and its records form the evidence base.
- Root-cause analysis
- An investigation method distinguishing systemic causes from individual ones so that corrective action addresses the underlying failure.
- Corrective action verification
- Confirmation that a corrective action actually eliminated the deficiency before it is formally closed in the quality system.
