IATA Aviation Cyber Security aviation training course

In an industry where almost every business depends on IT systems and the confidentiality and reliability of its data, cyber security is a fast emerging threat to operations. This course will help your organization determine where to start in what can seem like a never-ending effort to protect your information and systems. Starting with awareness training, the first and most important step to preventing cybercrime, you will learn about common attack methods used by today’s cybercriminals and the potential vulnerabilities in aviation systems. Using the insight you receive from case studies and demonstrations from IT experts, you will then learn the right questions to ask when conducting a risk assessment in an aviation business. Many airlines and airports have robust systems in place to address common hacking threats, but a holistic approach to the broader aviation IT infrastructure is still needed. Open to airline, airport, regulator and IT provider staff, this course provides a perfect platform for all key stakeholders to work toward a common framework.
