Shift5 Cybersecurity Module

Shift5

Critical transportation and defense assets, such as military aircraft, maritime vessels, ground vehicles, weapon systems, commercial aircraft, and rolling stock, are extensive technology platforms that rely on a complex web of onboard operational technology (OT) components. These components, designed with a focus on reliability and under the presumption of use in an isolated operational environment, often lack sufficient cybersecurity protections.

Today, as OT components become increasingly interconnected with traditional IT systems and external networks, the absence of appropriate defenses creates a gap in cybersecurity that leaves critical assets precariously exposed to potential cyberattacks. Owners, operators, and maintainers must prioritize addressing this unchecked risk to keep their fleets protected.

Shift5’s unique platform is hardware, bus, and protocol agnostic, and can perform passive, full-take data capture from any onboard source — every frame, every bus, every protocol. The platform analyzes data in real-time to detect threats and unlock critical insights for cybersecurity teams, providing the depth and breadth of knowledge needed to understand and manage cybersecurity risks to today’s fleets and tomorrow’s next-gen assets.
