Within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is responsible for ensuring the security of commercial aviation, including the transportation of cargo by air. To evaluate the status of TSA's efforts to secure domestic air cargo, GAO examined (1) the extent to which TSA used a risk management approach to guide decisions on securing air cargo, (2) the actions TSA has taken to ensure the security of air cargo and the factors that may limit their effectiveness, and (3) TSA's plans for enhancing air cargo security and the challenges TSA and industry stakeholders face in implementing these plans. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-76/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-76.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-76/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-76.pdf GAO-06-76 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-06-76 Other Written Product GAO-06-76; Aviation Security: Federal Action Needed to Strengthen Domestic Air Cargo Security; Air transportation Cargo security Homeland security Inspection Risk assessment Security assessments Security threats Strategic planning Aviation security TSA Air Cargo Strategic Plan Volume 107 Page 285 107 Stat. 285 Volume 115 Page 597 115 Stat. 597 Volume 117 Page 1137 117 Stat. 1137 Volume 118 Page 1298 Volume 118 Page 3638 118 Stat. 1298 118 Stat. 3638 Public Law 103-62 Public Law 107-71 Public Law 108-90 Public Law 108-176 Public Law 108-334 Public Law 108-458
