Ensuring EFB data security in aviation


At Bytron, we’ve always recognised the importance of robust and secure aviation systems. For over 40 years, we have worked diligently to implement the necessary processes and protections, ensuring that our skybook EFB and ground dispatch system data remains secure and our customers can trust in our commitment to safety.

Our commitment to delivering a fully integrated and secure aviation application focused on data protection, is why the ISO 27001 certification is a well-deserved recognition of our efforts.

Resilience throughout the company

Being ISO27001 certified is external recognition of our journey we have been on from the very beginning. Maintaining resilience to the ever-changing landscape of cyber threats requires constant vigilance.

We are continually reviewing and updating our processes and carefully monitoring our systems from the relevant authorities to ensure a robust response.

Our company values foster a relentless commitment to continuous improvement throughout the entire organisation. That’s why our team is at the heart of our data security processes, with every employee trained in the importance of risk reduction and knowing the correct procedures to take action.

After all, secure solutions require recognizing the crucial role people play in maintaining data security.


ISO 27001 aviation cyber security

Our CEO, Shane Spencer, emphasized the significance of our ISO certification:

"Cyber security is crucial for our company as it ensures skybook is a trusted system for managing our data and our customers' data securely within our environments. It reduces risks for both our customers and their clients.

Achieving ISO 27001 is vital in demonstrating to our customers and employees that we manage data at a high-security level, instilling confidence in what we do and how we do it."


Added peace of mind

skybook is hosted in a Tier 1 data center, ensuring comprehensive protection at the physical perimeter, infrastructure, data, and environmental layers.

Our aviation cyber security is further strengthened by our ISO 9001 Quality Management System, offering additional peace of mind with a fully documented disaster recovery plan and incident management procedure, detailing actions in the event of a data breach.

EFB data security is end-to-end, from our app to the browser-based ground portal, utilizing industry-standard SSL encryption. Additionally, data is encrypted at rest within the AWS infrastructure. This is also evident with our aviation data leading 99.95% uptime guarantee.
