Security Risks Grow As Aviation Continues Focus On Mobile Innovation
Airlines, airports, and aviation service providers rely on mobile applications and devices for flight operations, crew communications, and passenger services, such as loyalty programs, ticket purchases, boarding passes and baggage tracking. The airline's intellectual property, flight management systems, and passenger data are prime targets for phishing, malware, and cyberattacks.
Traditional security solutions aren't enough to protect aviation organizations from sophisticated mobile threats. Zimperium delivers AI-driven security to defend mobile devices, applications, and airline networks from cyberattacks.
Key Security Risks in the Aviation Industry
Increase in Mobile Attacks: Airlines depend on mobile endpoints, yet many remain vulnerable.
Phishing & Malware: Cybercriminals exploit crew and passenger devices to infiltrate systems.
Network-Based Threats: Rogue Wi-Fi networks expose critical flight and operational data.
Third-Party App Vulnerabilities: Supply chain integrations introduce security risks.
Mobile Apps Are Used to Abuse Rewards
Most rewards today are redeemed via mobile apps, making them the central access point for attackers. In fact, studies show that over 60% of loyalty program members prefer using mobile apps to access and redeem rewards. This preference, combined with the ease of integration into digital wallets and rewards marketplaces, makes the mobile app the most exposed and abused surface for loyalty fraud.
Zimperium’s Mobile App Protection Suite (MAPS) stops loyalty fraud where it starts — on the mobile device and within the app. Unlike traditional server-side API security solutions, mobile app protection provides deep, on-device defenses that prevent abuse before it hits backend infrastructure.
