For about two decades, security leaders were told over and over by many vendors that the key to good security is setting up proper VPNs (virtual private networks) which promised encryption and protection against malicious actors. With the rise of remote work, global work forces, contractors and trusted 3rd parties having access to the company network, having the right solution in place, coupled with proper logging and monitoring, can help you detect any potential issues before they become a major incident.

As the world of air traffic safety electronics personnel (ATSEP) continues to evolve with technological advancements, SkyRadar is proud to announce our partnership with the IFATSEA Assembly and Regional Meeting (IFATSEA ARM 24) on June 25th -28th in Casablanca, Morocco. This collaboration highlights our commitment to enhancing the skills and knowledge of ATSEP professionals globally.

In the vast expanse of the digital skies, where data streams intersect with the safety of millions of passengers daily, lies a realm of paramount importance: Air Traffic Control (ATC) cybersecurity. Ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of aviation systems is not just a matter of convenience; it's a matter of life and death. However, beneath the surface of this crucial field lies a concerning gap: the scarcity of qualified cybersecurity professionals with dedicated undergraduate, master's, and Ph.D. degrees tailored to the unique challenges of ATC.

The following video explores the Doppler Phase Shift Enhanced Disturbance Filter, a sophisticated approach designed to improve radar accuracy and effectively detect jamming.

The Doppler Phase Shift Enhanced Disturbance Filter (EDF) is an advanced radar signal processing system designed to effectively handle jammed radar data. It utilizes sophisticated algorithms to distinguish genuine radar reflections from jamming signals, thereby enhancing the radar's ability to accurately detect and track targets even in hostile environments.

On April 17-18, I had the privilege of attending a bi-national sector conference focused on addressing security and defense challenges related to space. The event was of significant national importance, underscored by the esteemed presence of Their Royal Highnesses Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg (front left in the photo), King Philippe of Belgium (front middle), as well as the Luxembourgish and Belgian Ministers of Defense.

Many new components  come together to form a comprehensive training system for ATSEP and military ATC qualification. This video provides an overview and shows how all fits together.

The smooth functioning of air traffic control (ATC) systems is vital to ensure the safety and efficiency of air travel. ATC systems rely heavily on electrical power to operate, and any power source errors can have a significant impact on their operation.

In  Air Traffic Safety Electronics Personnel (ATSEP) training, SkyRadar's Pedagogical Digital Twin presents a innovative approach by creating virtual replicas of air traffic control systems. This innovation is helpful for ATSEP, aligning with the EASA Easy Access Rules and ICAO Doc 10057. The digital twin technology facilitates a risk-free, real-time interactive learning environment, enabling simultaneous education for multiple users, regardless of their pace, level, or location.
