The Verifying Units (VU) have as their main function to verify and rule on compliance with the technical, operational, and regulatory provisions issued by the AFAC.
Airports, airlines, and airport service providers are currently facing an environment of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, such as acts or attempts to compromise databases, software, hardware, communications, as well as the logical and physical supports of critical information systems used in operations.
In light of this growing vulnerability, the Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) requires all airports, airlines, and airport service providers in the country to comply with the provisions established in Mandatory Circular CO SA 17.18/24.
Are you prepared for any type of attack that your company or institution may suffer?
Establish and standardize the minimum cybersecurity requirements that must be implemented by concessionaires, assignees, and permit holders of air transport, civil aerodromes, and providers of airport and complementary services to prevent acts of unlawful interference perpetrated through remote, cyber, computer, and/or technological means of attack.
Key Component:
1.- Compliance validation of point 7 of the circular.
2.- Validation under international cybersecurity standards.
3.- Reports of vulnerabilities, security breaches, and recommendations.
4.- Penetration testing on critical assets.
5.- Submission of compliance report to the AFAC.
6.- Compliance certification.
Cybersecurity is not just an investment in technology, it is an investment in the growth and operation of your institution.
By protecting your data and operations, you ensure that you are always one step ahead of the growing threats in the digital environment.
