Session 1 AVSEC Culture – Beyond the Standards

Promote the implementation of an effective security culture in order to enhance the global aviation system, which is critical to achieving sustainable outcomes. The existence of a well-trained, motivated and professional work force is a critical prerequisite for effective aviation security. A strong security culture must be developed from the top management across and within every organization.

Keynote Speaker

Mr. Bernard Lim, Director, International Relations and Security, Ministry of Transport, Singapore


Session 2 Vulnerability Versus Threat: Risk-Based Mitigation

Enhance understanding of aviation security risks for the development and implementation of policies and risk mitigating measures that are effective, proportionate and sustainable. Undertaking risk assessments will help to identify and prioritize gaps and vulnerabilities, which can then be urgently addressed in the most practical way possible, and with optimal use of resources.
