✈️ What if a small device could take over critical electronics on a Boeing 737?

UC San Diego CSE researchers have uncovered a new aviation cybersecurity risk, demonstrating how physical access to an onboard maintenance port could interfere with communications between critical flight computers.

Using real Boeing 737 components in a controlled demonstration, the team showed how a custom device could alter flight-path information and other aircraft data.

Led by Aaron Schulman and Stefan Savage, alongside CSE researchers Sam Crow and Pat Pannuto, the research highlights the importance of securing the physical layer of modern aircraft systems.
