The air rescue and fire fighting facilities are critical to airport operation. While there is need for preparedness in handling accidental fire or conducting air rescue just incase incidences of similar nature occur, these facilities require adequate security concerns. Moreover, the positioning of these facilities makes them potential for security vulnerabilities. At times, the public

Since the beginning of aviation, aircraft have been used for other intentions besides carrying passengers and cargo. They have been used as weapons of war dating all the way back to the first world war, and the use of aircraft has enlightened the advancement of the aviation. “Throughout the history of aviation, the greatest progress in flight has been made during time when either war or the threat of war was present” (Millspaugh, et al., 2008, p. 33). However, the war we face today has been triggered by the deliberate use of aircraft to cause death, destruction, and mayhem.

Technological developments have both created new opportunities as well as threats for the aviation industry.

The purpose of this paper is to explore and assess computer security as it relates to Aircraft Solutions. Aircraft Solutions provides products and services to a range of companies that require highly specialized skills. Information is accessed by internal and external users via their Business

An assessment of Aircraft Solutions (AS) as to what Security Vulnerabilities that might be found, two areas discussed are Hardware & Policy weakness and impact.

Through the history of aviation the importance of airport security has steadily increased. Since the terrorist attack of September 11, 2001, many changes have taken place at airports to prevent such an attack from occurring again. The purpose of this paper is to: outline airport security procedures, discuss the different technologies involved with airport security, as well as examine the components of airport security. In addition I will also discuss the Transportation Security Administration’s role in our nation’s airport security.

The express companies delivered tremendous amount of packages. The big three players, Federal Express, UPS, and Airborne Express, collectively delivered more than five million

As technology advances through the 21st century, the world of aerospace is becoming increasingly important. Nations with control of the aerospace realm have the ultimate advantage, and the race for control will continue to unfold as time goes on. There are many reasons why this region has such significance to our society, and one such reason is the ability to protect national security. Security breaches are detrimental to any nation, and with the line between rising and falling lays within a nation’s aerospace industry, it is a race against the clock to come out on top. To start, I would like to clear up two definitions: National Security and Aerospace Power. National Security is agreed upon to to some extent as “ the protection of a

Dynamic Aircraft was recently awarded a multibillion contract for a new high-performance aircraft. To continue with the development of our project, Dynamic was unable to use our current wiring in the electrical systems of the aircraft. Luckily this had been known, and Dynamic’s engineers had already started looking for a supplier who could meet their requirements and expectations. One suitable supplier, Advanced Wire, had developed a high quality ceramic coated wire. Without really giving other suppliers a second thought, the engineers at Dynamic were immediately ready to contract Advanced Wire without really considering any of the other suppliers. When the issue was brought up about a lack of suppliers, Dynamic’s engineers refused to hear

The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) announced “A framework for Aviation Cyber security” decision paper. According to the president of the AIAA Elect Jim Albaugh, the purpose of this paper is to outline a method that the aviation industry should follow. The decision paper focuses on
