Unit 1: AIM AND REFERENCE NORMATIVE
1.1.
PURPOSE OF THE SECURITY
The main purpose of the Airport Security is to ensure protection to passengers, crews, general public,
ground staff, aircrafts and its setting-ups against unlawfull interference acts done at ground or airborne by
keeping national and international air traffic regularity and efficiency.
In order to achieve this goal a group of rules are stablished and are intended to do all the needed
meassures, methods and proccedures. These rules are mandatory, with all the corresponding
responsabilities and limits, for every national airport and heliport with commercial flights, for every aiprort
setting-up, for all Air Navigation units, for all the companies and for all the staff related to aircrafts.
Although many unlawful interference acts had
been done before this date:
On the 11st of September 2001 the most
important assault in World aviation history
was made.
• 3.021 deaths.
• About 6.000 wounded.
• More than 55.000 people involved in
the rescue mission.
• 7 buildings were destroyed and 25
suffered severe damage in Manhattan.
• Economic impact: around 63.000
millon euros.
• Maximum loss in Stock Market:
↓ 14,03%
• Just 19 terrorists acted directly.

Unlawful interference acts against aircrafts ashore or airborne,
Kidnappings in the aircrafts or at the airports,
Attacks and sabotage of installations,
Forced intrusion in an aircraft or airport,
Inserting guns or dangerous devices in an aircraft with criminal purpose,
Giving false information that endangers safety.
3.2. AIRPORT SECURITY AGAINST UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE ACTS
Airport security tries to avoid unlawful interference acts against aircrafts or airport installations by using all
the available means (human and material).
When planning an airport installation, all the airport security requirements should be taken into account in
order to prevent anybody uncontrolled access to this place, and specially to any aircraft. It should be taken
into account:
a) Perimeter fence: It must clearly determine the operations area and endow it with all the neccesary
technical means in order not to be gone through (alarms, CCTV, access gates and so on).
DEPARTAMENTO FORMACIÓN AVSEC ADOLFO SUÁREZ MADRID-BARAJAS

División de Seguridad Aeroportuaria
e) Aircrafts security: All the aircrafts must be protected with special measures in order to prevent any
intrusion who may introduce any forbidden object or try to threaten the aircraft safety while
airborne. All the ashore aircrafts that are empty must have all their doors closed. The companies
must ensure their aircrafts from any unauthorized person who tries to enter.
f) Baggage control: Hand baggage as well as checked-in baggage that will be carried in the plane cellar
must be inspected as each one corresponds.
g) Baggage and passengers protection (controversial passengers): There are specific procedures in order
to ensure passengers and their belongings when they are waiting for boarding. There are some other
specific procedures for controversial passengers who may endanger a flight.

3.3. SECURITY INSPECTIONS AND SURVEILLANCE
The main purpose of the Security inspections is allowing people, who just really have a reason, to access to
Restringed Area (passengers, crews, police who have their jobs at the airport, employees and authorized
visits and so on) and avoid them to introduce any forbidden object to this area as stated in the normative.
In Spain, that is Guardia Civil responsibility. In order to carry out this task, they have the support of private
Security engaged by the managing airport.
3.4. IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION AND TEAMWORK BETWEEN ALL THE ENTITIES INVOLVED
How can the airport employees help to avoid these kind of acts?
It is really important the good communication and teamwork between all the entities involved in Security
and the rest of staff. Every employee must be aware of the importance of communicating to Security
Office or Security staff any suspicious act or behaviors.

Unit 5: DEFINITION OF AIRPORT
5.1. DEFINITION OF DELIMITED AREAS BY SECURITY AND REQUIREMENTS TO ACCESS TO EACH ONE
An airport is the group of installations and ground surface ready for aircrafts landing and takeoff, for
national and international air traffic where all necessary paperwork and procedures are carried out
(customs, immigration, public health and so on).
Depending on the security measures applied on each area, an airport is composed of:
LANDSIDE
PUBLIC AREA
AREA OF OPERATIONS
(ZP)
•CONTROLLED ACCESS AREA
(ZAC)
•RESTRICTED SECURITY AREA
(ZRS)
•CRITICAL SECURITY AREA
(ZCS)
a) Public Area (ZP). An area in an airport where everybody is able to access.
For example check-in hall, areas before security controls.
DEPARTAMENTO FORMACIÓN AVSEC ADOLFO SUÁREZ MADRID-BARAJAS
Page 20
División de Seguridad Aeroportuaria
b) Controlled Access Area (ZAC). Areas where only authorized people may access and it is not
necessary to inspect them.
For example, offices, some maintenance installations, arrival halls where passengers wait for
their baggage and so on.
c)
Restricted Security Area (ZRS). Every area of an airport where in order to access you must be
inspected. When this fact is not possible, a randomized security control will be carried out instead to
people and their belongings and to every vehicle.
For example:
• Areas where passengers are waiting for boarding, once they have passed the security
control
•
Areas where the inspected checked-in baggage are going round and about to board.
DEPARTAMENTO FORMACIÓN AVSEC ADOLFO SUÁREZ MADRID-BARAJAS

División de Seguridad Aeroportuaria
•
Aircrafts operations area (boarding or disembarking).
d) Critical Security Area (ZCS). It is a particularly sensitive area belonging to the Restricted Security Area
except the security controls and the boarding gates.
100% INSPECTION OF PEOPLE, OBJECTS AND VEHICLES
It is really important to obey all the security regulations and to respect every single
access.
Every control check point is established in order to ensure the safety of all of us and
to comply with the regulations.
5.2. GOING ROUND THE AIRPORT WHILE COMPLYING WITH SECURITY REGULATIONS. Who is authorized
to access and who not?
All the airport employees and crews must access to the different parts od the airport where they have
authorization depending on the existing controls:
 Accesses to ZAC, only the indentification will be checked.
DEPARTAMENTO FORMACIÓN AVSEC ADOLFO SUÁREZ MADRID-BARAJAS
Page 22
División de Seguridad Aeroportuaria

Acceses to ZRS and ZCS, in addition to checking everybody indentification, and inspection will be
carried out to every person and his belongins at the Security controls. In ZCS the 100% will be
inspected.
Access Control + Security Control
At the vehicles access controls, in addition to inspect and control people and their belongings, they
will be registered with the load they transport. 100% in ZCS.
Borderland of an airport: All the different parts or areas of an airport must be delimited and
separated with security physical barriers. The security controls that allow access to differents areas
must be delimited and signposted as well. Trying to reduce them as lowest as possible.
The entire airport sirte must be fenced with a perimeter fence complying with specific
requirements and periodic inspections.

7.1. TYPES OF SECURITY CONTROLS. What are they? And what do they consist of?
“Security Control” is the use of different technologic and human means in order to avoid introducing
forbidden objects that could be used for damaging people, aircrafts and any installation.
Control Access: It is a point equipped with technical and/or human resources in order to allow access just
to authorized people and vehicles. It may consist of an automatic card reader or, it may consist of a person
in charge of checking the accreditations, o even both measures.
Security Control: It is a point equipped with technical and human resources in order to avoid that any
forbidden object will be introduced for making an unlawful act.
Those airport employees (crews included) whose offices or places of work are situated in ZRS/ZCS, in
addition of an access control, they must pass through a security control as well, and to allow that all his
belongings are inspected.

In order to access to ZCS, 100% of people must pass through the security control (passengers, crew,
employees visits and so on), their objects, 100% of the vehicles and their occupants and the load they
carry.
Besides, the 100% of checked-in baggage, 100% of cargo and 100% of mail transported in commercial
flights.
The only exception are the staff who belongs to National Security Forces and Police, but just when they are
of service.

Unit 8: PROHIBITED ITEMS:
Those terrorist attacks carried out on the 11th of September in 2001, changed definitely the Air Safety and
Security. After this date, new regulations were approved. These regulations put a ban on flying with some
objects, some of them might be harmless in any other place different from an airport or an aircraft; some
other objects had been carried without any problem till that moment, but nowadays, they are considered a
real threat. Due to this reason, we must get used not to carry them when we fly on an aircraft or get used
to let them be inspected when we pass through a Security control.
Nowadays in Europe, the Regulation (EC) 185/2010 published a detailed list of all the objetcs that are
considered forbidden and which cannot be introduced in ZRS/ZCS and in the aircraft cabin (some of them
cannot be carried even in the aircraft hold).
The airport employees are only authorized to carry tools in just some necessary and indispensable cases in
order to carry out their jobs. They are responsible of their custody.

accreditations must show the letter H with an alphanumeric code which means the specific tools they
are authorized to carry with them.

This authorization to introduce tools in ZRS/ZCS involves that the worker knows perfectly that these
objects are forbidden for the rest of the people in these areas and they are responsible of their custody. In
case they do not comply with this rule, their airport accreditation might be permanently withdrawn and in
some cases erring against the Air Security Law 21/2003.

Unit 9: COLLABORATION WITH THE AIRPORT
In terms of Security, a responsible behavior means knowing all the rules that we must comply with when
we are working at the airport and reporting inmediately to our managers or to the Airport Security Office
or to the National Security Forces and Police when we notice any dubious fact in the airport environment.
SECURITY IS EVERYONE´S
Apart from the Security staff and the technological systems, in order to reach the highest levels in security
we need that the thousands of airport employees be aware of collaborating with the airport so that the
thousands of people and passengers can travel safely.
We all must be aware that security rules protect everybody and due to this reason, we all are responsible
for them with no exception. Since we are working at the airport, we must set an example and comply with
the rules and help those people who do not know them.
It is really very important that all people who work in the air traffic sector be aware of collaborating
We all must:
•
Know the different parts where we move and how to do it,
•
Know and comply with all the Basic Security rules,
•
Properly use of our accreditations,
•
Close all the doors and gates to Restricted Areas after having passed through,
•
Report to Security staff any dubious fact,
•
Report about any intrusion to ZRS/ZCS of an unauthorized person,
•
Report about any technological mistake that may affect the safety.
Here let’s see some of the most frequently cases that may happen in the airport environment.

9.1. HOW TO ACT IN CASE OF BOMB ALERT OR PERSONAL THREAT
It is common sense that many airport security procedures must not be publicized in order to safeguard
some information. However, there is some information that must be known by every airport worker in
order to collaborate with the Airport Security.
One of the most frequent incidents is the bomb alert either at the airport or on a plane, airborne or on the
ground. These alerts are usually received by any phone of the airport. For this reason, let´s see a few tips
that may any person help when they receive the call.
It is really important to get as much information as possible about:
-
Scheduled time of the explosion.
-
Origin of the call: From a public or a private place.
-
Identity of the person who is calling: Man or woman, old or young and so on.
-
Language spoken (any accent we could identify)
-
Characteristics of the voice
-
Modes: If it sounds coherent or not, if it looks like a joke and so on.
-
Write down the information obtained: It si really important to transmit the exact
information to the Security staff. Many times it happens that a small detail is really
valuable.
-
Other characteristics: if it sounds like he knows well the airport, aircrafts and so on.

It is critical to get as much information as possible about:
- Scheduled time of the explosion,
- Location of the explosive,
- Type of explosive,
- Reason.
PERFOMANCE IN CASE OF THREAT:
• Keep calm, if possible,
• Try to get as much information as possible,
• Memorize as much information as possible in order to transmit it to the responsibles for security,
• Pay attention to any irrelevant data,
• Report inmediately our person in charge.
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT ALL THE INFORMATION YOU CAN PROVIDE WHEN THERE IS A THREAT, IN
ORDER TO EVALUATES THE THREAT.
9.2 HOW TO ACT IN CASE OF SUSPICIOUS OBJECT ON THE GROUND
In case we find any abandoned package, object or baggege and that it looks like suspicious, we must act as
follows:
•
Do not touch it,
•
Check if the owner is on site,
•
Report immediately about its existence and location,
•
Keep away from its vicinity,
•
Do not use any device which emits vibrations close to it,
•
Evacuate people next to the object without alarming.

A threat should never be underestimated, although most of cases they are false alarms. Although it could
be a joke, a threat is always a crime and it is punishable by law, and that is the reason why security
professionals must finally evaluate it.
THE AIM IS TO AVOID CASES SUCH AS THIS …
