Technical security systems in the protection of the airport
The modern airport is a complex environment in terms of size, traffic, safety requirements and operational reasons, where the primary goal is to create favorable conditions for handling passengers and goods transported by aircraft. All elements of aerodrome infrastructure are an essential medium for carrying out transport and service processes. To be in the infrastructure of the airport should meet the current requirements and standards of carriers who treat this issue as a key criterion for the choice of the airport in terms of where they provide air operations. Modern solutions are increasingly attracting the attention of their customers. The main reason is to place services while increasing security. Europe is the target of terrorist organizations, so the critical infrastructure manager, in accordance with Annex 17 to the Chicago Convention on the State's obligations in the field of civil aviation, outweighs the adoption of an appropriate strategy that outweighs the various technical security solutions. The aim of the article is to present the currently operating technical systems at European airports. In order to achieve the intended goal, the materials available in the scientific publications and data provided by the selected airports were analyzed.
