Frequently Asked Questions
Key questions answered regarding our aviation software engineering, integration, and compliance capabilities.
What is aviation cybersecurity?
Aviation cybersecurity is the practice of protecting aircraft avionics, satellite communications, airport infrastructure, and airline IT systems from cyber attacks, unauthorized access, and data manipulation.
What is the RTCA DO-326A standard?
RTCA DO-326A (Airworthiness Security Process Insights) is the mandatory aviation standard recognized by the FAA and EASA for managing cybersecurity risks in aircraft systems and avionics throughout their lifecycle.
Can passenger Wi-Fi systems access the aircraft flight controls?
No, certified aircraft architectures use physical air gaps, unidirectional data diodes, and hardware domain separation to ensure passenger in-flight entertainment networks cannot communicate with critical flight control systems.
How does the software protect airport operational technology (OT)?
The system uses zero-trust network segmentation and specialized industrial firewalls to isolate critical systems like baggage sorting and runway lighting from corporate IT and passenger Wi-Fi networks.
How are pilot Electronic Flight Bags (EFBs) secured against cyber threats?
EFB tablets are protected using containerized app sandboxing, full-disk encryption, secure mobile device management, and cryptographic code signing for all navigation charts and performance calculation software.
