Security Measures and Resources Tool BoxContents
• The domestic and international terrorist threat is different for each country and
each land transport mode
• A single solution is not the answer - governments & operators should choose the
right security measures (tools) to manage terrorist threats
• The tool box approach allows security measures (tools) to be set against scenarios
• It avoids lengthy international debate on what are the right security measures
• Allows information to be shared globally, implemented & updated quickly
• Allows governments and operators to be responsible for their actions.
Security Measures and Resources Tool BoxWhy is a tool box approach necessary
What is the SMARToolbox?

• A readily available resource of global security information for land transport professionals
• Intuitive and easy to use searchable database of security measures
• Additional resources include:
• A self assessment function
• A security programme guide
• External links
• Downloadable for a local SMARToolbox version.
The SMARToolbox does not contain classified security information.
Classified data can be added locally
Security Measures
• The Tool box concept was conceived by International Working Group on Land Transport Security (IWGLTS) and developed by US Transportation Security Administration (TSA)
• SMARToolbox so far contains over 350 security measures which are searchable by a combination of filters, including : Mode, User Type, Asset Type, Phase, Attack Type
• The security measures were provided by IWGLTS and other international security organizations , facilitated by TSA
