What Airports Can Learn From the Cleveland Airport TSA Security Breach
Airports are not fortresses. That’s what the chief of the Cleveland Hopkins International Airport said after the perimeter breach in the early morning hours of Feb. 3, 2019, when a yellow SUV approached the airport from the west side, crashing through an unattended chain-link gate. The vehicle apparently came to rest in a snowbank, where it was ultimately found, after driving across the airfield for nearly three minutes, crashing through another section of fence in the process. Review the key facts of the Cleveland Airport security incident before reviewing approaches to prevent a similar situation from happening again. While this breach didn’t result in a tragedy, it highlights the importance of proper security measures in airports and other secure areas.

This is understandable; the assets are mostly digital, and insufficient protection against cyberattacks can lead to costly data breaches. Nevertheless, data center physical security is also important as the hardware used to store the information could be vulnerable to damage or theft. Personnel could also be at risk of physical violence.
