Overview
Airline insider risk management helps airlines protect employee, contractor, and customer data, secure supply chain access, and support compliance with GDPR, TSA regulations, and FAA requirements. The risk spans digital maintenance records, crew scheduling platforms, automated flight systems, and other airline systems used by employees, contractors, and third-party vendors.
DTEX is a purpose-built insider risk management platform for airlines. It combines UEBA, user activity monitoring, and DLP in one lightweight platform, giving security teams earlier signals of insider risk before a breach may be imminent.
For airline use cases, DTEX detects unusual access patterns, connects indicators of compromise from multiple sources, identifies new and changing file names within minutes, captures full file lineage with associated user activity, and uses behavioral risk modeling to baseline user and device behavior by role, department, and geography.
