Chertok Vladimir Borisovich Biography

Vladimir Chertok: “To fulfill the requirements of the law should be more profitable than paying a fine” Vladimir Chertok: “To fulfill the requirements of the law should be more profitable than paying a fine” on August 26, the hero of this number is Vladimir Borisovich Chertok, deputy head of the Federal Transport Service. Behind Vladimir Borisovich is a unique experience of practical and scientific work.

Under the leadership of V. Chertok in Russia, a system of supervision and control in the field of transport security and a unified duty dispatch service with the functions of the Center for Management in Crisis Situations and the Coordination Center for Aviation Security in the transport complex was created. Before the transition to Rostransnadzor, he worked for 30 years at the State Research Institute of Civil Aviation.

Since the year, it has the status of the current - one of the 17 in the world - expert and national coordinator of inspections of the International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO in the Russian Federation to ensure aviation security in civil aviation. There is a general concept of “safety in transport”, and in this concept there is production safety - movement safety, flight safety, and navigation safety.

Everything related to the technological procedure - with the serviceability of technology, with the training of staff - is one area. And there are safety issues in terms of the Federal Law - such as security from acts of illegal intervention, including terrorist threats. These are different spheres, and they require different approaches. Unfortunately, confusion often occurs.

At the legislative level, concepts are also often mixed. Using the term “transport safety”, they believe that this is the entire field of security. But legislatively, as a normative component, this refers to a specific situation. If transport security, then this is precisely the protection from acts of illegal intervention. We, of course, are also like a supervisor.

But there is also the second side. These are carriers, owners of objects who do not want to spend money who want nothing to change for their business, so that the state does everything at the expense of budget funds. Such a mutual ratio of positions led to the fact that the development of by -laws was very tightened. In -laws containing new transport safety requirements for objects and vehicles, in fact, came out only in the year, in February.

And they left after several terrorist acts occurred, quite serious. One of them is in the subway. After that, very serious instructions were given and were quite quickly agreed upon by all departments and orders of the Minister for all types of transport - these are orders, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th ,I From this moment, specific requirements for the equipment of objects and vehicles have appeared.

In fact, this year a fairly complete description of all requirements in the field of transport safety will be completed, starting from products, personnel, enterprises, facilities and legal entities. That is, only now this area will receive a complete legislative framework. Although practical implementation according to existing laws and international standards has been going on for a long time - at least in aviation and among sailors.

In world practice, there is no such category of transport infrastructure and vehicles. We are a little leaders here. Many of us, as they say, write off the lessons in terms of the Law on Transport Security. The new regulatory framework is much more loyal. It does not spell out specific technical means. The procedure is as follows. First, the category of objects is made, then the evaluation of vulnerability.

Based on the vulnerability assessment, a plan for ensuring transport safety is drawn up. In this regard, all the necessary technical means, technologies and staff should be reflected. That is, technical means of safety in transport should be spelled out on the basis of the plan and in plan. If you take, for example, the standard for some international airports, then it says “The height of the fence is 2.13 meters or 2.44”.

Some figure is written, nothing more. We have no such point. This is not in the new regulatory framework. It is clear that life will change. After 2-3 years, new technical means will appear, new threats will appear, again it will be necessary to adjust this. That is, again it will be necessary to introduce new security technologies, maybe technical means, maybe new staff training.

The risks are changing all the time. Unfortunately, those that were not before appear. Among them are very difficult to ensure security. The most difficult, of course, are risk and security from suicide bombers. What we rarely faced before. It was always believed that one who threatens did not want to lose his life. As a rule, these were captures and theft of aircraft or some other vehicles.

But at the same time, the invaders were not going to die, so one of the concepts was such - the crew is obliged to comply with the requirements of those who carry out these acts, for the sole purpose of saving the lives of citizens.The situation, unfortunately, has changed, as the threat itself has changed. Sovereigns are a completely different threat mechanics, a different approach is needed to protect against it.

Another new and complex threat that has appeared now is cyber terrorism. We know a lot of wonderful feature films when terrorists capture airports and try to control aircraft. Now there are many versions of these. As a rule, unfortunately, all fiction comes true. Sooner or later comes true. Therefore, this is such a direction that is discussed by everyone and already requires the development of security technologies.

A serious trend in the list of threats is drones, remotely manned aircraft. This is a new problem, which has now manifested itself, and so far it is not clear how to regulate it. By mass, they, as a rule, exceed even the calculated mass of collision with birds. Usually, a duck or goose weighing about six kilograms is taken into account in the strength of the aircraft.

But, firstly, these are soft objects, and secondly, the mass is small. And the regulatory framework for drones - it generally starts from 35 kilograms today, and this is not yet fixed with us. One country only released norms on this topic, Canada. And then in a cut -out form. There are threats that are only brewing until they appear, but it is already clear that they will be.

They follow from information systems, this is a new problem close to cyber terrorism. You can just arrange a panic. A characteristic case that was recently in Mecca. It would seem that there was nothing threatening there, but the people went the wrong way. That is, several groups of pilgrims, someone commanded the leaders of these groups that you can go there. And they went, and came together with a wedge in one place.

It all ended with a crush, panic with severe consequences. And the cause of the tragedy is the purest information component. There are two current points in the development of security technologies today. The first is to exclude the human factor, to get away from making a person a decision.

The decision should make a technique, and the person should control it. Another interesting direction, it is not new, it is very old, it may simply develop slowly. But it seems to me that it is the most effective - the so -called profiling technologies, that is, an expert assessment of the threat that may come from a particular person. It is carried out according to various factors: according to his behavior, according to his clothes, according to his baggage, the expression of his face.

There are already technical means that allow you to do such profiling. We are trying to turn the principle of equipment in the other direction. Not to “shake” a person and his things as much as possible and create inconvenience to him, but rather, simplify the procedure. As we say, with a suitcase, a person goes to the plane. As if there are no security systems, he sees nothing.

But the systems control everything if he has nothing banned for transportation. That's all. If you find it - step aside, show what you are carrying or what you are taking. If there is nothing forbidden, you pass quite calmly. The main difficulty is to ensure the safety of not even objects, but vehicles. Because there are a lot of them, there are millions of them.

Now amendments to the law are being prepared, the Ministry of Transport is engaged in this, not us. But at our proposal, the category should be assigned to vehicles initially. That is, if it is a bus for 60 passenger seats, it has the first category. If passenger capacity is 10, then he has a second or third category. And then a separate procedure for categorizing vehicles, and maybe some objects, will disappear.
