Security Management Systems (SEMS)

A new approach to an airlines security system is the implementation of a Security Management System (SEMS).   Adoption of SEMS will ensure your airline has a performance-based approach to operational security. Taking into account threat assessments and the operational environment, the Security Management System will ensure the implementation of security measures that are efficient, cost effective and best suited to the circumstances encountered.
