Problem
Aviation unites the world. Today it has become an
irreplaceable part of our lives, our business, and more importantly — it
brings us back home to spend time with our family.
There are over 100,000 flights worldwide made daily, serving over 2 million people. Despite
the fact that aviation is considered as one of the safest types of
transportation, the number of accidents related to air transport
averages to about 3302 yearly. The main reason is the human factor. We looked at several common problems. The key problems are that pilots may
lack experience they claim, as flight log records can be easily forged. This
problem is worsened by “pay to fly” practices, offered to pilots who would not
have been hired otherwise. Flight schools may be corrupt to help pilots put
in hours on paper. Aircraft operators also contribute to the problem by often
underreporting the flight hours, saving huge maintenance costs for the
aircraft. With quickly developing technology, aside from human factors, we
also face database intrusion, resulting in modification or distortion of data.
With so many systems in play—airlines alone house data in many isolated
systems from passenger service to crew management—data exchange is not
always smooth. In the airline industry, not only are operational integrity and
revenue generation at stake when something goes wrong, but even more
importantly, so is safety and security.
Protecting data privacy is a clear issue when it comes to passenger records,
flight manifests and crew information. Not to mention the security
implications that are in play today if this data is not properly protected.
Blockchain technology with a security wrapper creates a very different and
less risky, yet transparent approach to managing and sharing this
information through the use of authorized access requirements.
