Righter Kunkel - Air Traffic Control Insecurity 2.

Summary

Architecture and Background

Righter Kunkel - Air Traffic Control Insecurity 2.0 This presentation will be a follow up to my "Air Traffic Control: Insecurity and ADS-B" talk last year. I will give a quick overview of what has changed since last year.

Vulnerability Analysis

I will cover a few insecurity's today. How bad is your network when the FAA requires firewalls between critical flight systems and passengers surfing the web on the new 787 plane.

Exploitation and Demonstrations

I give a caution to all the executive jet owners that it will be much easier to track flights. As always, I want to open peoples eyes to the insecurity of the ATC system.
