A SYSTEMS APPROACH TO CARGO SECURITY IS PRESENTED THAT STRESSES THE FORMULATION OF THE PROBLEM AND SYSTEM PURPOSE IDENTIFICATION.

Abstract

VARIOUS SYSTEMS TECHNIQUES FOR ANALYZING THE SYSTEM AND ENVIRONMENT ARE DISCUSSED. THE PROJECT RECOMMENDATIONS DISTINGUISH BETWEEN MANAGERIAL POLICY, PROCEDURES AND REGULATIONS, AND PHYSICAL SECURITY MEASURES, THOUGH THE SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS ARE NOT REPORTED. A 'THEFT SUSCEPTIBILITY INDEX' AND 'SECURITY SYSTEM EFFECTIVENESS INDEX' ARE SUGGESTED AS A MEANS OF TRANSFERRING EVALUATION METHODOLOGY APPLIED IN ONE AREA TO OTHER CARGO TRANSFER DEPOTS.
