The Cyber Security Technical Panel serves as a hub for promoting awareness of cyber security activities, technical understanding, and developments in the field. It supports interests in cyber security, technical articles, conference activities, and education relevant to complex systems in transportation, aircraft, GPS threats, and information security. The panel aims to increase visibility in cyber security, collaborate with AESS meetings and conferences, and offer educational tutorials to members. It focuses on near-term goals, increased reputation, and co-locating meetings with key conferences.

Cyber Security Technical Panel Kathleen Kramer April 2016
Cyber Security Panel Topics • Vision of the panel is to serve as a hub of AESS cyber security activities, to highlight and promote awareness of activities, technical understanding, and developments in this increasingly important field. • The panel promotes and supports cyber security technical interests, technical articles and conference activities, and educational activities in those aspects of cyber security most relevant to complex systems for space, air, ocean, or ground environments. • These technical areas include • Cyber security for transportation • Cyber security for aircraft and avionics • GPS threats • Information security for complex systems, and • Identification and modeling of cyber-related vulnerabilities.
Cyber Security Panel • Near-Term Goals and Objectives • Hold 2+ meetings/year • Increase AESS reputation and visibility in cyber • Relate to AESS Conferences, Meetings, Activities AESS Activities • AES special issue cyber/avionics and/or cyber/transportation being planned. • Conferences – DASC, ICCST, with tracks related to panel • Bring cyber AESS to the chapters Greater IEEE and Cyber: • IEEE Cybersecurity Initiative • Ruling from IEEE-HQ: No affinity groups. Non-council, so Cyber “chapter” can be effected by joint chapters in AES/C/CE/COM. • Need to offer tutorial/DL in the area that can be promoted as a joint chapter event. • Members • William Claycomb (Carnahan Conf & SEI of Carnegie Mellon) and Eric Rickard (Booz Allen Hamilton)-Members include BoG Bill Walsh, Erik Blasch, Mike Davis)
Upcoming Meetings • Selected 2 AESS conferences to co-locate with panel meetings • DASC (Digital Avionics Systems Conference) in Sacramento September 25-29 where I am co-chair • Largely focused on Cyber security for aircraft and avionics • Central theme of several track papers: vulnerability of ADS-B (and NextGen) • ICCST (Int’l Carnahan Conf. on Security Technology), 24-27 October, requested to also be site of a panel, more focused on a range of security issues, including cyber security but is smaller • Intend to go to 2016. • Members postponed 2015 attempt as Taipei location impeded participation.
