Civil airports are an important piece of critical infrastructure but are constantly vulnerable to acts of unlawful interference. Therefore, since the beginning of the development of aviation, they have been the subject of increased concern throughout the international aviation community. This is reflected in the regulations on civil aviation activities and their protection developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the European Union (EU). Poland has adopted all the regulations on civil aviation, including airport security, enacted by these two organizations. This was reflected in the amendment of the Polish Aviation Law. The purpose of this article is to present the changes in the responsibility for conducting security checks under the Aviation Law. The introduced changes in the civil aviation security system in the Republic of Poland, including the system of civil airport security, have not reduced the state of security. Nevertheless, it should be noted that each security service in the face of the same threat, differently assesses the need for security, which may result in different actions. This makes it all the more important to constantly monitor the relevant aviation authority and services overseeing the work of private security companies.
