- "Known Cargo" in the context of air transport security refers to cargo originating from a trusted and validated source where appropriate security measures have been applied from the point of origin up to the point of acceptance by the airline or regulated agent. - Option 1 describes cargo consignments accepted from a regulated agent who has applied appropriate security measures. Regulated agents are entities recognized and authorized by the appropriate authority to handle cargo according to specified security controls. Cargo from such agents is typically treated as known cargo. - Option 2 describes cargo consignments accepted directly from a consignor who has applied appropriate security measures. Consignors can be approved as "Known Consignors" or similar status, where they implement security measures at their premises allowing their cargo to be treated as known. - Option 3 describes unknown cargo that has been subjected to security controls like screening. While this cargo becomes "secure cargo" after being screened, it does not change its original classification from "unknown" to "known" cargo. Known cargo originates from a known/trusted source, while unknown cargo's origin security status is unverified until screened.
