Managing digital risk to support aviation innovation
An increasing number of companies have been hit with cyber-attacks that extend well beyond the typical breach of employee or customer data, disrupting day-to-day operations, imposing irreparable reputation damage, and for the aviation industry, threatening lives.

Therefore, an organization should not only take reasonable steps to protect its data, applications, and infrastructure, but should also minimize the damage of successful attacks, and return to normal operations as soon as possible.

- Vigilant: Pre-emptive visibility and situational awareness
- Resilient: Capability to recover when incidents occur
