Abstract

The article is devoted to the study and analysis of the problems associated with the use of intelligent technologies in air transport security and cybersecurity issues. Possible dangers that may arise when using autonomous systems, including autonomous aircraft, are considered. The technical measures that can be taken to prevent these dangers, including the development of new methods of cybersecurity and protection against hacker attacks, are analyzed. The problem of ensuring security in air transport associated with the introduction of new technologies and automated systems is investigated. The risks associated with this process are described, such as possible aircraft accidents, data storage problems, and passenger safety issues. Technical measures that can be taken to ensure safety in air transport, including the development of new technologies and diagnostic methods that can detect possible problems before they become serious, are considered. Practical solutions to these problems are proposed, including the development of new security and cybersecurity systems that can be used in air transport. The technical measures that can be taken to ensure the safety and efficiency of the use of intelligent technologies in air transport are described. It is established that the developed simulation model can serve as an effective tool for managing the processes of aircraft ground handling at the airport, as well as allow predicting the results of such processes and developing algorithms for the rational allocation of resources, considering the functioning of the system in different modes. To ensure the efficient functioning of the aircraft ground handling system, it is proposed to implement technical measures to improve cybersecurity and ensure the system's resilience to possible cyberattacks.
