CREATION OF A STATE SYSTEM FOR CONTINUOUS MONITORING OF AVIATION SECURITY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE INTERNATIONAL REQUIREMENTS

The article presents the review of the problems in aviation security, as well as the steps that the International Civil Aviation Organization and the Russian Federation are making on the way to the effective provision of aviation security. Comparison of the statistics on acts of unlawful interference is given on the example of world statistics and those of the Russian Federation. Conclusions are drawn on the need to create theoretical and practical bases for the implementation of an effective system for continuous monitoring of the compliance of the requirements of the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation in aviation security control with ICAO standards and recommended practices under The Universal Security Audit Programme Continuous Monitoring Approach. The main ICAO documents in the field of aviation security were analyzed and a table was created with indication of their applicability for the ICAO audit areas for aviation security and other critical parameters. Additionally, the level of applicability of the analyzed documents is indicated for the specified ICAO Audit Programme objectives. Also, measures are proposed to be taken to create a system for continuous monitoring of aviation security in accordance with the ICAO requirements. Considering the complex multilevel structure used in the Russian Federation in aviation security, some proposals are presented on the membership of the expert community of the system for continuous monitoring of the compliance of the requirements of the regulatory documents of the Russian Federation in aviation security control with ICAO standards and recommended practices.
