Abstract

Security in the aircraft business attracts heightened attention because of the expansion of differing cyber attacks, many being driven by technology innovation. Continuous research does not consider the sociotechnical essence of security in basic areas, for example, carrier turnaround systems. To cut time and costs, the latter comprises several companies for ticket- and luggage management, maintenance checks, cleaning, passenger transportation, re-fueling, and so on. The carrier business has embraced broadly data innovation for guaranteeing that aircrafts are in a state to take off again as fast as would be prudent. Progressively, this prompts the development of a virtual enterprise that utilizes data advances to consistently coordinate individual airline-turnaround processes into a single structure. The subsequent sociotechnical security risk management issues are not clearly understood and require further examination. This paper fills the gap with an assessment about the application of a security risk management strategy to identify business assets for a more profound risk mitigation analyses. The result of this paper provides knowledge about the usefulness of existing security risk management approaches.
