Terminus airport is in chaos again due to cyberattacks! Airline kiosks, backend servers, terminal flight information displays, transportation security, runway lights, aircraft, and other critical systems at this tier-1 airport have been compromised by some hackers. There are indicators some airport insiders may have colluded with the hackers! It’s up to you, the cyber defender, to participate and help resolve the situation! You have to research and investigate this crisis and regain control of the Terminus and its airspace. From collecting evidence (and flags) to restoring compromised assets and assisting impacted stakeholders, the clock is ticking! It’s time to apply everything you know about cybersecurity (e.g., password cracking, log and network traffic analysis, computer forensics, malware analysis, and ethical hacking); intelligence (e.g., OSINT, machine learning); and, aviation (e.g., crew, avionics, drones, air traffic control, airline operations, security screening, airport information systems, and aviation cyber-physical systems) to help the Terminus return to normal operations. You have been given full authority to do whatever it takes to catch the hackers, seize back control of the airport, and restore aviation operations. Good luck, defenders!
