Abstract

With globalisation new opportunities and prospects, but also demands and challenges for air traffic management (ATM) arise. Our complex economy and open society are increasingly vulnerable, so severe dangers are often difficult to identify, since neither offenders nor weapons have clear profiles. Concerning safety and security in air traffic, airports are the key factor. Considering security, it is obvious that developing and establishing structures or rules and laws alone will not be sufficient. This article will describe five modules of behaviour oriented Security-Management (IAPAM-Security-Management), in which the identification and integration of all key persons in the development of new security-procedures take place as well as the improvement of existing measures. The fundamentals of the IAPAM-Concept are five steps or modules. These modules build a circuitry of diagnoses, interventions, prevention, innovations and controlling.
