The USN and USMC need a solution to the threats posed by cyber-attacks and errant corruption of critical aeronautical data such as the Vertical Obstruction Database (VOD) and navigational databases such as the World Magnetic Model. These threats compromise critical aeronautical data, reduce mission effectiveness, and put warfighters and aircraft at risk. Our ADEPT solution permits modeling of data supply chain, subject matter expert assessment of risks in terms of likelihood and consequence associated with model elements, Monte Carlo simulation of model to assess impact of risks and mitigations as well as application of machine learning to detect anomalies associated with VOD data compared to historical data. Our solution will provide the capability to perform a ‘what if’ analysis and examine how decreasing risks through various mitigations reduces likelihood of data corruption. Our solution will result in a robust process for verifying the integrity of all mission navigational data uploaded to Navy and USMC aircraft.
