Practical Aviation Security: Predicting and Preventing Future Threats, Fourth Edition is a guide to the aviation security system, from crucial historical events to the policies, policymakers, and major terrorist and criminal acts that have shaped the procedures in use today, as well as the cutting-edge technologies that are shaping the future. Using case studies and practical security measures now in use at airports worldwide, readers learn the effective methods and fundamental principles involved in designing and implementing a security system. This expanded fourth edition covers new threats and technologies to reflect the latest knowledge in the field from the past decade.

This book will be ideal for airport, airline, charter, government, and others with aviation security responsibilities to better implement their security programs, evaluate the ever-changing risk environment, and respond appropriately and responsibly.
