The SD Data Centre supports virtual private networks for its business aviation customers.
CYBER RESILIENCE

allowing them to log into the network, gain a direct connection
to the plane's Wi-Fi hardware, and potentially access other
people's devices on the network.
The more likely threat to aircraft cybersecurity than
hackers is when compromised devices are brought on board
an airplane and infect the network, according to Wheeler.
He estimates that " 99% of passengers don't know they're
bringing a compromised device on a jet. "
While the aircraft is on the ground, flight and ground crews
always should be cognizant of who's boarding, what their
connectivity needs are, and what level of network access they
should have. For example, aside from company employees,
what other guests have been invited as passengers? Is the crew
also letting people like FBO employees on board without prior
vetting?
Passenger devices may connect to unsecured networks
automatically and unexpectedly. Huntoon noted that
while company employees might have access to a robust
VPN, " maybe it's guests who are bringing their laptops
or devices on without the same level of protection, not
logging onto the company firewall, and not realizing that
they have malware, or maybe there's other stuff going on

with personal devices that potentially compromises the rest
of the network. "
The importance of passwords
One of the easiest solutions is having a robust password that
is changed regularly - yet many business aircraft operators fail
to implement this option.
" Some CEOs and owners just want to get on the Wi-Fi and
connect up, " Wheeler said. " Most of the time, private owners
aren't putting passwords on Wi-Fi at all because they view it
as an inconvenience to passengers, but requiring passwords
is low-hanging fruit when it comes to securing your network.
A lot of the time these risks happen because someone is
getting on board with malware, and they're not educated about
cybersecurity best practices. "
Put another way: " The boss doesn't want a password
because it's an annoyance, but does he have one at his house?
Does he have one at the office? When it comes to the aircraft,
C-level executives and owners sometimes want to throw
protective cybersecurity practices out the window, and it's
mind-boggling, " Wheeler said.
Hackers have been known to exploit situations where
operators are known to have open Wi-Fi and an open network,
