Fly by wire, remotely distributed control, remote and automated piloting, and augmented reality are a few evolutionary achievements in flight control and guidance that further remove the potential of human error in flight control systems. However, with hacks and attacks being reported daily in all areas of the Internet of Things (IoT), the increasing integration of electronics into aerial vehicles also poses new risks.

In this white paper, the myriad security vulnerabilities that can affect critical, connected systems are highlighted, and a discussion of how autonomous key management (AKM) security protocols, along with other methods of security, can be leveraged to ensure communications and critical systems are hardened again hacking.

In this white paper you will learn:

• What AKM and zero-knowledge authentication are and why they are important.
• What applications can these two security protocols be used to protect.
• Why it’s critically important to secure systems now, and not wait until a vulnerability appears.
