The aviation sector faces escalating cyber risks as digitalisation deepens across flight operations, maintenance, and passenger services. Cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, targeting critical systems such as avionics software, flight planning tools, and airport IT infrastructure. A successful breach could disrupt navigation, compromise safety, or ground entire fleets, leading to severe financial and reputational losses. Regulators are tightening cybersecurity compliance, pushing operators to invest in robust defences. Insurers are responding by expanding cyber liability offerings, often bundling them with traditional aviation policies, while introducing stricter risk assessment protocols and premium adjustments for operators with inadequate cyber resilience.
