As airports become increasingly reliant on a complex web of interconnected IT, OT, IoT, and cyber-physical systems, they face a new and evolving threat landscape. The historical focus on physical security is no longer sufficient. A single cyber vulnerability in an unmanaged device—like a self-check-in kiosk, a baggage handling system, or a digital sign—can cascade into widespread operational chaos, flight delays, and significant reputational damage.
This webinar, presented by cybersecurity experts from Armis and GuidePoint Security, will delve into the critical challenges of securing modern airport environments. We will explore how to gain comprehensive visibility into the entire airport attack surface and proactively manage cyber risk to ensure the safety, security, and seamless experience of passengers.
Key Topics to be Discussed:
- Aviation Industry trends
- The Modern Airport Attack Surface: Understanding the interconnectedness of IT systems, operational technologies (OT), and a vast array of Internet of Things (IoT) devices that power everything from jet bridges to HVAC systems.
- The Cyber-Physical Threat: Analyzing real-world examples of how a cyberattack on a single, seemingly insignificant device can lead to major operational disruptions and safety risks.
- A Proactive Approach to Security: Moving beyond reactive incident response to a predictive model of cyber exposure management.
- Building a Resilient Airport: The webinar will provide actionable insights and a clear framework for protecting critical infrastructure.
- Armis Platform: Discover how Armis’s leading asset intelligence platform can help airports:
- Asset Visibility: Identify and classify every connected device, managed or unmanaged, across the entire airport ecosystem.
- Prioritize Risk: Contextualize vulnerabilities and exposures based on their potential impact on critical airport operations – Early Warning
- Map and Break Attack Paths: Simulate how a compromise in one system could propagate to others, and develop strategies to prevent such lateral movement.
- Regulatory Compliance: Address new and evolving cybersecurity requirements, such as those from the TSA.
