Specialised fuel for aircraft, subject to strict quality and supply chain security requirements.
Aviation fuel (jet fuel) is the specialised fuel used by aircraft, requiring strict quality control and supply chain integrity. Aviation fuel operations involve complex logistics—refineries, pipelines, storage, and airport delivery. Cyber attacks on aviation fuel supply chains could ground flights and disrupt air travel. Aviation fuel companies face requirements from aviation regulators, oil majors, and airlines for operational and cyber security.
Why It Matters
The DSC Perspective:
Aviation fuel is critical infrastructure supporting air travel. Cyber security requirements in this sector are increasing. Operational technology securing fuel operations requires appropriate protection.
