Defining Appropriate Cyber Security Requirements - A Risk Based Approach

Speaker(s)
Description
This year’s Xponential theme is “Assured Autonomy”. Without assurance, trust in UAS safety and correct operation is constrained, impeding broad deployment and adoption and hindering proving UAS benefits for society. Foundational to this fabric of trust is that this technology must be robust, secure, and resilient at all levels. An operator who does not take appropriate cyber security precautions becomes the proverbial “weak link” in security creating an exploitable “back door” into the wider UAS ecosystem. Since this ecosystem depends on digital and machine-to-machine communications, the human who traditionally provides a level of resilience may no longer be present and thus their role must be replaced by technology, policy, and processes - requirements for which need to be proportionate to risk and appropriate for the operation. A Joint Authorities for Rulemaking on Unmanned Systems working group has developed a “Cyber SORA” – a methodology allowing UAS operators to perform such a risk assessment from a cyber standpoint and build in risk proportionate safeguards against cyber threats to their UAS operations as well as ways to mitigate the consequences of cyber incidents, were one to occur. This panel will discuss the group’s work and proposed set of Cyber SORA performance criteria.
