Manual for National ATM Security Oversight

This manual provides guidance to the national authorities responsible for aviation and ATM security on:

  • the understanding, context and scope of ATM security and its interfaces with the broader aviation security;
  • how to carry out the oversight of ATM security management systems;
  • how to be prepared for external ATM security oversight e.g. in the context of ICAO, ECAC and EASA audits or inspections.

The first part of the document (main body) is dedicated to the first bullet point above, in order to support national authorities understanding the complexity and components of ATM security.

Bullet points 2 and 3 are mainly developed throughout the questionnaires included in the annexes to the manual.
