Security Master Plans

JDA can assist with building your Aviation Security Master Plan, which documents the security strategies, goals, programs, and processes. It is used to guide development and direction in these areas in a manner consistent with the Airport Master Plan, IT Master Plan, and the organization’s overall Strategic Goals and Business Plan.

  • Security Threat Vulnerability Assessments

    With rapid changes in aviation security, Security Threat Vulnerability Assessments should be conducted regularly depending on the facility type and size. JDA can perform Security Threat Vulnerability Assessments for airports, air carriers, civil aviation authorities, and aviation organizations worldwide.

  • Security Compliance Auditing Programs

    There have been many changes to aviation security requirements since 49 CFR Part 1542 was implemented. Numerous Security Directives have been issued and have remained in effect for years. It is difficult to track all the changes and ensure that all requirements are met—from law enforcement to security contractor posts, credentialing office procedures, Criminal History Record Checks, Security Threat Assessments, and regulatory audits, to name a few.

    Is your Airport Security Program (ASP) up to date? Is your staff conducting procedures as originally planned? JDA can perform a confidential audit and help you make that determination. JDA can also set up internal compliance audit programs to help you stay on track. Audits include:

  • Airport Security Programs
    • Security Directive Compliance
    • Contracts
    • Facilities
    • Staffing
    • Credentialing processes
    • Regulatory audits
    • Physical Access Control Systems (PACS)
    • Security Operations Center policies and procedures
    • Law enforcement officer airport security training and compliance
  • Security System Design
    • Assess existing Physical Access Control Systems (PACS) and make recommendations for upgrades or replacement.
    • Assess existing badging systems and make recommendations. Develop the Scope of Work for system upgrades to an Identity Management System (IDMS).
