Cybersecurity for Airlines: Safeguarding Aviation in the Digital Era
Airlines are increasingly reliant on interconnected digital systems—from flight booking and check-in platforms to aircraft operations and passenger data storage. This digital evolution makes them prime targets for cyberattacks, including data breaches, ransomware, and disruptions to flight systems. Protecting such complex infrastructure requires layered cybersecurity, including secure network architecture, real-time threat detection, employee training, and compliance with aviation-specific regulations like IATA and ICAO guidelines. With millions of passengers and critical logistics at stake, airlines must prioritize cybersecurity to ensure passenger safety, operational integrity, and public trust in the global aviation ecosystem.
