Abstract

The subject of study in the article is methods for improving the cybersecurity of unmanned aerial vehicles with an integrated ADS-B system. The aim is to analyze and compare methods for improving the cybersecurity of unmanned aerial vehicles with an embedded ADS-B system. Particular scientific tasks: analysis and comparative studies of the main types of cyber threats and methods for improving the cybersecurity of unmanned aerial vehicles with an integrated ADS-B system, the development of an appropriate taxonomy, and the development of proposals for further research. The methods used in the article are the methods of system analysis. The following research results have been obtained: a classification of cyber threats to the security of unmanned aerial vehicles with an integrated ADS-B system has been developed; a taxonomy of ADS-B message modification and injection attacks has been developed; practical UAV security metrics adapted to the presented taxonomy of cyberattacks are defined and researched ; chosen most priority directions research ; - a generalized classification of cryptographic protection methods adapted to solve the problems of improving the security of UAVs with an integrated ADS-B system has been developed; the use of additional means of identification based on steganographic methods of data protection is proposed. Conclusions. An analysis and comparative studies have been carried out, and a generalized classification of methods for improving the cybersecurity of unmanned aerial vehicles with an integrated ADS-B system has been developed. Their advantages and disadvantages are revealed, which made it possible to determine the priority of further research and possible promising ways to solve the tasks.
