antihijacking
Against aircraft takeovers
Antihijacking describes measures, policies, or equipment designed to prevent the seizure of vehicles—especially aircraft—by force: antihijacking protocols, antihijacking screening.
The term gained prominence with aviation security after airline hijackings became common in the late twentieth century.
