Course Overview

Insider risk in aircraft security is uncomfortable to discuss and expensive to ignore. Guard force performance on this aspect of corporate security practice reflects supervision, not instruction. The content is relevant to those who own the practice within corporate security practice and to those who are held accountable for its results. Practitioner evidence points the same way: aircraft security improves fastest where responsibility for it is named and owned. The programme builds the judgement to know which parts of the wider corporate security practice agenda to standardise and which to leave flexible. The difficulty is not agreeing that this strand of corporate security practice matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in aircraft security rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in this part of corporate security practice, not around theory headings. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make the practice within corporate security practice sustainable.
