 t/Floor 1/Hall 4/Creator Stage 3 - [1]Map\n\n   Description:\n\n   Automat
 ic Dependent Surveillance – Contract (ADS-C) is a\n   satellite-based av
 iation datalink application used to monitor aircraft\n   in remote regions
 . It is a crucial method for air traffic control to\n   track aircraft whe
 re other protocols such as ADS-B lack connectivity.\n   Even though it has
  been conceived more than 30 years ago\, and other\n   legacy communicatio
 n protocols in aviation have shown to be\n   vulnerable\, ADS-C’s securi
 ty has not been investigated so far in the\n   literature. We conduct a fi
 rst investigation to close this gap. First\,\n   we compile a comprehensiv
 e overview of the history\, impact\, and\n   technical details of ADS-C an
 d its lower layers. Second\, we build two\n   software-defined radio recei
 vers in order to analyze over 120’000\n   real-world ADS-C messages. We 
 further illustrate ADS-C’s lack of\n   authentication by implementing an
  ADS-C transmitter\, which is capable\n   of generating and sending arbitr
 ary ADS-C messages. Finally\, we use\n   the channel control offered throu
 gh a software-defined ADS-C receiver\n   and transmitter as a basis for an
  in-depth analysis of the protocol\n   weaknesses of the ADS-C system. The
  found vulnerabilities range from\n   passively tracking aircraft to activ
 ely altering the position of\n   actual aircraft through attacks on the do
 wnlink and the uplink. We\n   assess the difficulty and impact of these at
 tacks and discuss\n   potential countermeasures.\n\n   We will further loo
 k at satellite-based ADS-B receivers and discuss\n   their security and ho
 w they relate to ADS-C.\n\n   SpeakerBio:  Martin Strohmeier\, Senior Scie
