CCX Cybersecurity Approved for SmartSky Network
SmartSky's air-to-ground connectivity network will have enhanced security thanks to the CCX Technologies hardware and software platform.

The growing popularity of in-flight connectivity solutions has also created increased demand for solutions designed to ensure cybersecurity. This week at NBAA-BACE 2019, CCX Technologies announced that its SystemX cybersecurity platform is approved for the SmartSky Networks Skytelligence digital services framework to help meet that need.

The SystemX platform is a combination of hardware and software, which helps protect an aircraft’s onboard network by monitoring data transmissions among avionics systems and between the aircraft and the ground network, collecting data and providing alerts as necessary. The platform also analyzes anonymized data, presenting a broad view of cybersecurity threats along certain routes and highlighting potential vulnerabilities for a customer’s aircraft.
