EMBRY-RIDDLE AERONAUTICAL UNIVERSITY

AVIATION CYBERSECURITY

Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University draws on cybersecurity principles, safety, certification and assurance experience to educate aviation professionals.

FIRST Cybersecurity engineering program with required safety and certification core ONLY Aviation maintenance program with a cybersecurity track 4.8 MIL

Our Center for Aerospace Resilient Systems (CARS) coordinates research on cybersecurity engineering across the university’s “One Embry-Riddle” approach, contributing to product development in collaboration with industry and federal agencies. Our research and development teams at Embry-Riddle are at the forefront of advancing aviation cybersecurity via student engaged research, including experimental learning through the CARS internship program. We develop innovative cyber resilient solutions for aviation systems, including UAS, CNS, ISR, ATM, satellites, and flight operations. We play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our industry by contributing to technologies, standards, policies, and best practices. We actively collaborate with leading organizations, including the ICAO Trust Framework and Cyber Security Panels, RTCA & EUROCAE, ACI US-ACCESS, AIA Civil Aviation Cybersecurity Subcommittee, FAA’s REDAC SAS, et al.. We offer specialized short courses and certification programs in aviation cybersecurity. Embry-Riddle student teams have created and led aviation ‘Capture The Flag’ (CTF) events, a cornerstone of cybersecurity training, at major venues like A-ISAC, ACI Cyber Rodeo, AIAA, RSA Conference, DEFCON Aerospace Village, NASA-NSF Cyber Workshop, Symposium on Aviation & Aerospace Cyber Resilience, and more. Our commitment to education and real-world application cements our position as leaders in the field of aviation cybersecurity.

Our portfolio of aviation cybersecurity includes: Zero-Trust architecture for aviation systems Aviation Cybersecurity Data Science & AI/ML Autonomous & Advance Air Mobility Systems Threat modeling and mitigation for aerospace systems
