“When the system being protected is as valuable economically as aviation, even a small reduction in its usefulness and value adds up quickly, making security potentially much more costly than might be assumed,” report co-author and senior RAND researcher Brian Jackson said.

Although it is possible to calculate how much is spent on scanners, screeners and other security measures, but less-tangible economic costs also occur because a lot of security makes the aviation system difficult to use, the report points out. And while the US security system relies on a layered security strategy, more layers are not necessarily better than fewer.
