Air
Traffic Management (ATM) security is amongst major topics of safety critical
systems and issues of both civil aviation and military defense units. The
dramatic increase in the number of the aircrafts and the innovative technology
that provides smaller and sustainable air vehicles make the air communication
protocols and methods as a high profile potential target for black hat hackers.
There are lots of communication protocols and different systems between air to
ground (A2G) station and air to air (A2A). These include set of information
such as aircraft communication data, voice information and flight planning
which works on some protocols. All of radar detection and chasing systems are
also using similar techniques. The Data Distribution Service (DDS) is a
protocol for data transfer to each node. The communication systems can be
protected from third party system or hackers to some extent. The security is
coming from that point. Each components have own security using valid and
standard methods. Our approach in this study, enforces reasonable and
applicable security concepts and techniques for a robust and resillient air
traffic.
