Abstract The study investigated if establishing common international security standards through mutually recognized security programs would make the air cargo supply chain less vulnerable to terrorist activity and increase trade efficiencies. Divergent air cargo security programs result in separate measures that lack a unified front against terrorism and slow the shipping process. By proposing the Global Protocol for Air Cargo (GPAC) to the aviation security community, I examine the idea of an international framework to unite government and industry to create the most secure and efficient aviation cargo supply chain to date. The research overall explores ways to unify air cargo stakeholders by raising the bar on security measures and absorbing the burdens placed on securing the aviation industry.
