Aviation & Aerospace
Securing the skies for the quantum era. Quantum-resistant cryptography designed for 50-year aviation lifecycles with zero disruption to flight operations.
The Challenge
Aviation systems operate for 50+ years with safety certification cycles that take a decade. Aircraft communications use legacy protocols with no built-in encryption, making them vulnerable to spoofing and interception.
50-Year Lifecycles
Aircraft and air traffic systems remain in service for decades. Cryptography deployed today must withstand quantum attacks that emerge during this timeframe.
ADS-B Spoofing
ADS-B broadcasts aircraft position in plaintext with no authentication. Attackers can inject false aircraft positions, creating ghost aircraft that disrupt air traffic management.
Certification Complexity
Aviation safety certifications (DO-178C, DO-326A) take years and cost millions. Any changes to avionics software require full recertification.
Supported Protocols
Comprehensive coverage of aviation communication protocols from air-to-ground data links to avionics bus standards.
