The Threat
The increasing innovation, sophistication and destructive potential of modern terrorists – armed with conventional, as well as chemical, biological and radiological weapons – means that we must continually monitor the threats, remain vigilant, and ensure that airport security staff are well trained and implement effective procedures to prevent the infiltration of terrorists, explosives, and hazardous materials onto aircraft, into airports or into secure installations.
One of the most notorious failings of security screening occurred on September 11th 2001, with suicide hijackers predicting the structural and procedural weaknesses of the security checkpoints which prevailed at that time to seize aircraft and use them as missiles. The attacks were horrific in terms of the loss of human life and financial damage inflicted, yet they were not the worst-case scenario that many security experts believe could befall us in future.
