“…Kagalwalla and Churi [15] stressed the increased challenges in provisioning cybersecurity in aviation as a consequence of the increase in the deployment of modern ICT technologies such as IoT, machine learning, cloud storage/computing with their concomitant inherent vulnerabilities. Moreover, Duchamp, Bayram and Korhani [1] highlight that the increase in the number of travellers, building of new modern airports, and complexities in new aircraft have also stimulated an increase in cyber-attacks in civil aviation.…”

The integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools into mechanical devices in routine use within the aviation industry has heightened cyber-security concerns. The extent of the inherent vulnerabilities in the software tools that drive these systems escalates as the level of integration increases. Moreover, these concerns are becoming even more acute as the migration within the industry in the deployment of electronic-enabled aircraft and smart airports gathers pace. A review of cyber-security attacks and attack surfaces within the aviation sector over the last 20 years provides a mapping of the trends and insights that are of value in informing on future frameworks to protect the evolution of a key industry. The goal is to identify common threat actors, their motivations, attacks types and map the vulnerabilities within aviation infrastructures most commonly subject to persistent attack campaigns. The analyses will enable an improved understanding of both the current and potential future cyber-security protection provisions for the sector. Evidence is provided that the main threats to the industry arise from Advance Persistent Threat (APT) groups that operate, in collaboration with a particular state actor, to steal intellectual property and intelligence in order to advance their domestic aerospace capabilities as well as monitor, infiltrate and subvert other sovereign nations’ capabilities. A segment of the aviation industry commonly attacked is the Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, the most prominent type of attack being malicious hacking with intent to gain unauthorised access. The analysis of the range of attack surfaces and the existing threat dynamics has been used as a foundation to predict future cyber-attack trends. The insights arising from the review will support the future definition and implementation of proactive measures that protect critical infrastructures against cyber-incidents that damage the confidence of customers in a key service-oriented industry.

“…In addition, a cyber attack on the airline's network structure can cause great damage to the entire airline. The increase in the use of technology therefore means that more efforts must be made to make it safe (Kagalwalla & Prathamesh, 2019).…”

Although civil aviation has an effective technology to increase the efficiency and safety of air transport, the interconnectedness of systems and dependence on information-communication technology cause new risks to emerge. The use of extensive computer-based and interconnected technologies in airport ground systems, air navigation systems, flight information systems, in-flight control systems and security scanning has brought along new dangers as well as gains.The concept of cyber security has become one of the most important agenda items of institutions, international organizations and states in the aviation sector, where information and communication technologies are rapidly developing. It is important to recognize the multifaceted and disciplined nature of cyber security and not to overlook the fact that cyber attacks are a rapidly spreading threat. In this sense, international civil aviation organizations are constantly updating their work in order to keep the aviation industry safe against cyber attacks. Studies are not only limited to aviation organizations, but are also carefully carried out by governments.The aim of this article is to draw attention to the negative effects of cyber attacks, which are increasingly important in civil aviation, to the aviation industry. Cyber attacks on civil aviation cause great losses in the world economy in general. For this reason, aviation organizations and governments, as well as aircraft manufacturers, airline companies and airport management staff, need to use existing and developing technologies well and develop systems that can guarantee operational safety in order to increase sectoral efficiency and meet the expectations of customers. In this study, firstly, information about cyber space, cyber security, cyber threat and cyber attack is given, and cyber attacks against civil aviation from past to present are stated in chronological order. Then, the studies carried out by civil aviation authorities within the scope of national and international fight against cyber threats were discussed, and finally, a general evaluation was made and various suggestions were made.

Мета: дослідити особливості та сучасний стан кібернетичної безпеки в авіаційній сфері та правові можливості її захисту. Методи дослідження: застосовувалися загальновизнані методи наукового пізнання, а саме: аналітичний, порівняльно-правовий, системно-структурний та інші. Результати: досліджено поняття, суть, характеристики і особливості кібербезпеки в авіаційній сфері, вказано на проблеми захисту об’єктів критичної інфраструктури, авіаперевізників та пасажирів та надано пропозиції щодо подолання таких проблем. Обговорення: дискусія у дослідженні присвячена пошуку шляхів вирішення проблеми забезпечення надійного рівня кібербезпеки в авіаційних комп’ютерних системах і мережах та необхідності гармонізації вітчизняного законодавства з даного питання із міжнародними стандартами.
