Interview: CGE reveal how incident data can prevent future threats

Emma Verschoor, Product Manager at CGE Risk Management Solutions takes us through the company’s protocols for learning from incidents and how they can actively monitor how relevant barriers can be improved.

How important is the visualisation of risk assessments to ensure a secure airport environment?

The visualisation of risks is important to create risk awareness across all stakeholders involved in airport security. The bow tie methodology provides a scenario-based picture which is easy to understand and communicates one common language. Barriers are visualised to understand how incidents can be prevented or impacts mitigated. All stakeholders are responsible for different barriers and by means of a bow tie diagram everybody understands their own and each other’s responsibilities.
