Perceived Cyber Threats to Aviation Industry in India

World over it is progressively helpless against cyber-attacks due to interruptions that influence the respectability of data. This failure is an element of world economy which is quiet substantial. Aviation sector contributes to 7% of World GDP and Indian Civil Aviation close to 9%, thus any disruptions can cause huge losses. Another muddling factor is the thickness of India's cyberspace, which does not allow a uniform legitimate or specialized limit for data protection laws. Security threats to civil aviation have turned out to be more challenging due to cyber-physical systems and their integration. One of them is that it is seeming considerably more confounded and advanced to oversee is cyber-attack. Today, the worldwide civil aviation network is depending on Information Technology (IT) frameworks. Apart from these issues, due to primarily based oppressor attacks on airplane and air systems, air terrorism carries the threats to aviation sector across the globe. There is a need to be certain degree of awareness of the situation by the environment. The Aviation ecosystem in India must get down building multiple layers of secured firewalls in order to remain safe and overpower the menace of cyber threats and Cyber terrorism. IT frameworks will be a key driver of development and proficiency, including frameworks to upgrade safety and security. In this paper an effort is made to highlight the cyber security threats in the civil aviation industry to Indian subcontinent and the solution for limiting them.
