If any suspicious items are found, which actions should be taken?

• A. Do not touch
• B. Do not attempt to move
• C. All of the above
• D. Report to SCCM/Commander

Answer: (C)

When a suspicious item is found, the priority is safety and preserving the scene for investigators. Do not touch or move the item, because handling it could trigger a device, cause harm, or contaminate evidence. At the same time, report the finding to the Security Control Center or the Commander immediately so trained security personnel can assess the risk, cordon off the area, and coordinate the appropriate response. Together, these steps protect passengers and crew and ensure a proper, rapid security reaction.
