Secure flight and mission systems require security beyond the stratosphere
CYMETRIS enables DO-326A, NIST 800-53 & IEC 62443-aligned risk assessments—supporting cyber-resilient aerospace and space systems by design.
Cybersecurity takes off where software becomes mission-critical
Aerospace and space systems are some of the most technologically advanced, long-lived, and safety-critical platforms ever built. From avionics and inflight communications to satellite control systems and orbital infrastructure, these systems are highly interconnected—and increasingly software-defined.
Remote connectivity via satellite links, cockpit data channels, and cloud-based ground stations introduces new attack vectors. Aircraft systems must maintain airworthiness over 30+ years; spacecraft may never be physically accessed again after launch.
As electromagnetic interference, spoofing, and cyber-kinetic threats grow, cybersecurity must be embedded into design, certification, and long-term operation—secure by design, mission-ready by architecture.
Risk-based cybersecurity is non-negotiable in aerospace-grade engineering
In this industry, the cost of failure is existential. Aviation systems must comply with DO-326A and DO-356A; space systems follow NIST 800-53, ISO 27001, and defense-grade requirements. These frameworks demand systematic risk assessment across all systems—from flight control to telemetry, command and data handling (C&DH), and autonomous payloads. Risk-based engineering enables threat anticipation at every level: software, hardware, protocols, and human-machine interfaces.
Whether manned or unmanned, all aerospace systems require verified, traceable cybersecurity risk mitigation strategies starting from concept.
ADS-B, ACARS, MILSATCOM, and GNSS links expose systems to spoofing, jamming, and interception. CYMETRIS supports proactive scenario modeling.
Existing airborne systems often lack native protections. CYMETRIS enables secure-by-retrofit strategies that meet compliance without redesign.
