Rothschild, Senior Cybersecurity Marketing Leader &amp; Visionary, Armis and Russell Yeager, Director of Airport Strategy for the U.S. Public Sector and North American Airport Market, Armis<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Recent air traffic control and other operational disruptions at North American airports serve as a timely reminder that as aviation infrastructure becomes more connected and digitally advanced, so too must our approach to resilience. These incidents are not just technical events.\u00a0 They highlight the urgency and opportunity to proactively modernize and protect both the physical and network systems we rely on every day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Complex, Interconnected Ecosystem<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Airports today are dynamic, digitally driven environments. Far more than transit points, they are hubs of interconnected technologies, ranging from traditional IT systems and operational technologies (OT) to an expanding universe of Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Each of these is managed by one or more of the various stakeholders operating at an airport, from federal agencies and airport authorities to airlines and concessionaires.<\/p>\n<p>This convergence of these various people, processes and technology plays a role in the seamless movement of people and goods. With various stakeholders responsible for their management, ensuring visibility and coordination across the entire ecosystem becomes increasingly important.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Shared Responsibility for Operational Resilience<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While recent system outages were not the result of cyber incidents, they underscore the importance of continuous oversight and coordination of network defense. Whether the cause is aging hardware, configuration issues, or digital anomalies, all aviation stakeholders share a responsibility to foster operational and cyber resilience.<\/p>\n<p>The aviation sector plays a critical role not only in passenger transport but also in national security, global commerce, and emergency response. Disruptions can have wide-reaching effects underscoring the need for early detection, coordination, and modernization across our technology systems.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moving from Reactive to Proactive<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s aviation environment requires more than incident response.\u00a0 It calls for predictive and preventive strategies, and education throughout the aviation community to raise awareness about cyber threats and the necessity for good cyber hygiene. Proactively monitoring the health of digital assets and identifying risks before they lead to disruptions can help maintain the high standards of safety and reliability the public expects.<\/p>\n<p>For example, detecting a degrading radar component or an overlooked IoT device configuration can make the difference between routine maintenance and major service interruption. Building this level of awareness takes collaboration, tools, and a shared commitment to improvement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A Path Forward: Collaborating for a Secure Future<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The way forward is clear: as our aviation infrastructure grows smarter, it must also become more secure and resilient. This is a collective challenge\u2014and a shared opportunity\u2014for all stakeholders at the airport. Together, we can evolve our approach to reflect the realities of our increasingly digital landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Here are five actions stakeholders can take today to build a stronger foundation for the future:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Establish Comprehensive Visibility Across All Technologies<\/strong><br \/>\nFrom IT systems to legacy OT and IoT devices, a full understanding of the technology footprint is essential to managing risk.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adopt Risk-Based Vulnerability Management<\/strong><br \/>\nUse threat intelligence and asset criticality to prioritize mitigation efforts, moving beyond periodic scans to continuous evaluation.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Foster Cross-Functional Coordination<\/strong><br \/>\nBreak down organizational silos by aligning cybersecurity efforts across IT, OT, facilities, and operations teams.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Implement Real-Time Monitoring and Early-Warning Capabilities<\/strong><br \/>\nDetect issues before they escalate. Early insights help teams act with agility and reduce the likelihood of major disruptions.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Continuously Update and Exercise Response Plans<\/strong><br \/>\nPractice builds resilience. Regular scenario testing ensures preparedness across all critical systems, minimizing potential impact.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>As we look ahead, it&#8217;s clear that securing the future of aviation will require continued investment, collaboration, and modernization. By working together\u2014airports, airlines, regulators, technology partners, and other industry stakeholders\u2014can build a more resilient aviation ecosystem that not only keeps pace with innovation but leads the way.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-38481 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot-.jpeg?resize=225%2C209&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"209\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?resize=300%2C279&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?resize=1024%2C953&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?resize=768%2C715&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1430&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?resize=2048%2C1906&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/airportscouncil.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Michael-J.-Rothschild-Headshot--scaled.jpeg?w=2340&amp;ssl=1 2340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>Michael J.
