If you work in aviation security or operations in Central America, these are some of the questions we hear most often.
Are you focused only on Central America?
Yes. Our primary focus is Central America and nearby regional routes. This allows us to deeply understand local threats, regulations, infrastructure and culture, while aligning with global standards.
What types of organizations do you work with?
We work with international and domestic airports, passenger and cargo airlines, ground handlers, cargo terminals, maintenance facilities and government entities involved in aviation security.
Can you help us prepare for an upcoming audit or inspection?
Absolutely. We support operators in reviewing documentation, training teams, performing mock inspections and closing gaps before official visits from authorities or third-party auditors.
Do you provide training in Spanish and English?
Yes. Our consultants deliver training, exercises and documentation in Spanish and English, adapting content to the operational reality of each site and team.
How do you integrate physical and cyber security?
We evaluate both physical and digital assets, identify shared risks (such as access control, identity and information flows) and design unified procedures and responses across departments.
How do we start working with AviaSec?
Start with an introductory call to discuss your current situation and objectives. From there, we propose an initial assessment or quick-win project tailored to your risk profile and deadlines.
