Aviation, Freight & Last-mile Logistics

Securing the global movement
of people, freight, and data.

Aviation and logistics run 24/7 across multiple jurisdictions, with safety-critical OT, payment-grade booking platforms, and millions of passenger and shipper records moving every hour. A single security failure here grounds an operation and triggers reporting obligations in three regulators at once.

The Challenge

Why aviation and logistics need specialised security testing

Generic enterprise pen tests miss what makes this sector different — the always-on operational tempo, the safety-critical OT layer, the cross-border data flows, and the public-facing payment surface.

Crew, Passenger, and Shipper PII at Scale

Bookings, passport numbers, frequent-flyer accounts, AWB freight records, and payment instruments — all subject to GDPR for EU-bound flights, DPDP for Indian operations, and sector-specific guidance from DGCA, IATA, and ICAO. A breach is reportable in multiple jurisdictions.

Booking and Payment Platforms

High-traffic booking engines, ancillary upsell flows, and last-mile delivery checkouts are payment-card processors at scale. PCI DSS scope is non-trivial and audit-heavy. Loyalty program APIs, partner-airline interlining, and fraud-detection integrations multiply the boundaries that an attacker can probe.

OT, IoT, and Safety-Critical Systems

Aircraft and ground equipment increasingly run networked OT — fuel systems, baggage handlers, ground-power units, sortation conveyors, and warehouse automation. These were never designed with internet-era threat models. Segmentation, vendor-managed access, and continuous-monitoring gaps are the norm.

Multi-Jurisdiction Data Residency

A single passenger record may transit India, the EU, the GCC, and the US in a few hours. DPDP, GDPR, sector-specific airline data-protection guidance, and emerging localisation rules all want the same data treated differently. Architecture decisions made years ago are now compliance liabilities.

Services for Aviation & Logistics

Security tests calibrated to operational reality

Each engagement is scoped to the windows you can actually test in — change-freeze calendars, peak-season carve-outs, and OT-touch authorisations are baked into how we plan.

Compliance

Frameworks that matter to aviation and logistics

We align findings to the specific clauses your regulator, acquirer, code-share partner, or shipper-DPA will check — PCI DSS for payments, DPDP / GDPR for passenger and shipper data, ISO and SOC 2 for the platforms that run the operation.
