Abstract :
Security is always a priority in the implementation of information technology solutions. The necessity of IT as well as the complexity of IT-based solutions has increased. The technology of the Internet and distributed processing enable information processing in a geographically broad area. The IT awareness and the technological sophistication of users produce a large number of educated hackers and cyber criminals. Companies worry about this threat and are willing (forced) to invest in improving the safety characteristics of their IT systems. Sophisticated security equipment and excellent aviation security requirements are not sufficient to assure efficient aviation security services. The human being continues to be the most important factor in the security process.
