AEEC Technical Application Bulletins

Considerations for the Incorporation of Cyber Security in the Development of Industry Standards
  Staff: Vanessa Mastros
Reference: 10-180/ABN-35A

Summary:
ARINC Standards are used to support the design and development of aircraft systems, avionics, networks and information security. As broadband connectivity to the aircraft is implemented, and as additional application functions are installed using common communication paths, the need for consistent security principles will be paramount. Security provisions need to be implemented in a consistent way.

The security process begins with a common overview of aircraft security and the proper security considerations provided by ARINC Report 811 with further details provided in the development of additional industry standards.

This Technical Application Bulletin provides cyber security considerations for use in an aircraft environment. It represents the security experience and best practices available at the time of its writing. This document will be updated as the need arises.

Discrete Input/Output Impedance of ARINC Characteristics
  Reference: 04-171/ABN-001
Summary:
This Technical Application Bulletin provides guidance to avionics manufacturers and aircraft systems integrators for attaining proper operation when interfacing discrete signal outputs from one avionics set with discrete signal inputs of other avionics. Some newer avionics are configured with discrete outputs that include short circuit protection. Such equipment will fault when working into large capacitive loads. Guidelines are provided herein for attaining interoperability.

Information on the Comparison of AEEC Procedures with Other Standards Bodies
  Reference: 05-069/ABN-04

Summary:
This report was prepared in answer to questions by some AEEC members about how AEEC procedures contrast with other standards setting bodies. It compares the methods used by AEEC to develop consensus documents for publication as ARINC Standards with three other standards bodies: IEEE, AIAA, and SAE. In addition, the requirements for acceptance as American National Standards, administered by ANSI, are also compared.

This report is offered for information only. There is no intent to make any modifications to existing AEEC procedures in order to conform to ANSI requirements.

IP Addresses Used Onboard Aircraft
  Reference: 09-003/ABN-026

Summary:
ARINC 664 Aircraft Data Network Part 4:  Internet-based Address Structure and Assigned Numbers, identifies IP address ranges for various domains onboard the aircraft. This TAB collects known IP address assignments for various aircraft and ground system implementations in order to reduce conflicts among the various systems connected to the onboard IP network.

  Reference: 08-205/ABN-023

Abstract:
This TAB documents various security scenarios which are intended to
ultimately be included in a security guidance document.
