This figure
represent a simplified Airborne Warning and Control System IT systems diagram
having 3 isolated networks (red, green
and blue). In reality there are many
more internal networks with different
security levels for utilities, radar
systems, navigation, video, external communications
VoIP etc. Networks with the same
function and same security level are
also segmented to improve reliability
and security. The set of requirements
for equipment that touches these
networks is very challenging. System
must be secure to avoid leakages between
networks and external intrusions. System
also must recover in fast and
controllable manner from catastrophic
events (surviveability, fail-safe). Aircraft systems
must be designed to comply with civil and military aviation certification.
