COMPLIANCE · TSA

Air cargo security you can show, shipment by shipment.

Air cargo security under TSA's rules in 49 CFR Chapter XII: aircraft operator and indirect air carrier security programs, cargo screening, and the training and security threat assessments behind them.

Where it breaks

  • A security program that lives in a binder.

    The program says one thing and the dock does another, and nobody finds out until an inspection.

  • Threat assessments that lapse.

    People keep working with cargo after their security threat assessment or training has expired.

  • Screening records no one can produce.

    The shipment was screened, but the record that proves it can't be found when it's asked for.

What it covers

  • Security programs

    Aircraft operator programs under 49 CFR Part 1544 and indirect air carrier programs under Part 1548, kept current with every amendment.

  • Cargo screening

    Screening and acceptance records for each shipment, including certified cargo screening facilities under Part 1549.

  • Known shipper

    Shipper verification on file and current before cargo is tendered.

  • Training and threat assessments

    Security training and security threat assessments for everyone with unescorted access to cargo, tracked to expiration.

  • Security directives

    Security directives and emergency amendments that apply to your operation, with what changed and when it takes effect.
