Aerorspace Village at DEF CON 28

After the Aviation Village’s amazing inaugural year, we have transformed into the Aerospace Village and continue to grow and evolve. The Aerospace Village at DEF CON will encompass all aspects of the aerospace sector ranging from airports, air traffic management, aircraft and space. In the coming weeks we will be letting you know how to get involved, support and be involved!

The aerospace industry, security researchers, and the public share a common goal: safe, reliable, and trustworthy air travel and space operations. For too long, negative perceptions and fractured trust on all sides have held back collaboration between the aviation, space, and security researcher communities that has advanced safety, reliability, and security of other industries. As the traditional domains of aviation and space safety and cybersecurity increasingly overlap, we will be safer, sooner, together.

The Aviation Village welcomes those who seek to improve aviation security, safety, and resilience through positive, productive collaboration among all ecosystem stakeholders. Read more about our Values, Goals, and Scope.

We fully support DEF CONs decision to go virtual and many of the Villages are moving virtual as well. While each organization and event will develop its own decision criteria and make its own hard choices, the Aerospace Village will provide our content and activities virtually for DEF CON 28.


The Aerospace Village is planning a variety of virtual activities with contributions from both public and private industry, all designed to provide education and awareness about aerospace cybersecurity and foster collaboration between the aerospace industry and the security researcher community.


We are working with the Air Force and Defense Digital Service as they transition the Hack-a-Sat finals into a virtual experience for both participants and spectators. More information on that will be posted here.


We look forward to providing a virtual experience that brings us all together and to do that we want to hear from you. Tell us what you want to see in a virtual Aerospace Village by filling out this quick form.

We will provide an update with dates and more logistical details as soon as possible. You can get involved by following us on Twitter: @SecureAerospace or via our website www.aerospacevillage.org.
