Aviationvigasid

Aviationvigasid is a term used in security discourse to describe the coordinated protection of aviation systems, operations, and infrastructure from a broad range of threats. It encompasses preventive measures, active defense, incident response, and recovery planning across airports, air navigation services, carriers, maintenance facilities, and critical supply chains. The phrase is used in some jurisdictions as a generic label for an integrated approach that bridges aviation safety, security, and resilience.

Implementation of aviationvigasid relies on risk assessment, layering of defenses, and continuous improvement. Key activities include physical security of airfields and terminals, access control, and surveillance; protection of aircraft, crew, and ground handling; cybersecurity of air traffic management and airline information systems; secure communications; personnel vetting and training; and robust emergency response and business continuity planning. Data protection and threat intelligence are also integral parts.

Governance typically involves national aviation authorities, airport operators, and air navigation service providers, with military or border agencies participating where appropriate. International guidance comes from bodies such as ICAO, IATA, and ISO standards for risk management and information security. The concept is evolving as new risks emerge, including drone operations, cyber threats, and complex supply chains. Because usage and definitions vary, some sources treat aviationvigasid as a shorthand for specific national programs rather than a universal term.
