EASA Compliant Organizational Cyber Security Responsibilities – 1 Day

Introduction

This course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the fundamental concepts and principles of cyber security as it applies to the aviation industry. In today’s interconnected world, aviation systems are increasingly reliant on digital technologies, making them vulnerable to cyber threats. This course aims to equip learners with the knowledge and skills necessary to protect aviation operations and maintenance environments from cyber-attacks.

EASA understands its role to regulate and ensure that cyber risks are taken into account during aircraft design, development, and operation and then controlled in order to avoid adverse effects on citizens’ safety.

The possibility for malicious aviation cyber acts continues to threaten the integrity of the aviation system and the potential grows almost daily. A continuing challenge is a task of identifying potential cyber vulnerabilities across many different and often complex aviation systems, some integrated and some disparate.

Whilst the current threat of cyber-attacks linked to terrorism in the aviation industry is assessed as low, the potential for opportunistic malware type of cyber-attacks is ever-present.
