Introduction to Aviation
Information Security & EASA Part-IS

What's this training about?

This training offers a comprehensive introduction to Aviation Information Security, designed to build a strong understanding of why it’s crucial in today’s digital and interconnected aviation landscape. You’ll explore the origins and evolution of EASA’s role in information security, learning how it became essential for ensuring a unified safety standard across its member states. From the early concerns around information security in aviation to today’s heightened risks due to digitisation, this course highlights the impact on aviation safety and the critical need for security measures.

In clear, structured modules, you’ll learn the fundamentals of information security in the context of aviation safety, along with a thorough breakdown of the Part-IS regulation. This includes the key requirements for implementing a compliant Information Security Management System (ISMS), and the purpose behind them. All of this will help you gain the knowledge and confidence to approach aviation information security with clarity, purpose, and assurance.
