The MIL-STD-1553 bus architecture was defined in the 1970s. It has been immensely successful in its primary aim of high reliability communications for aircraft and other vehicles. However, that high reliability architecture exposes cyber vulnerabilities that were never conceived when the 1553 standard was created.
Recent publications have highlighted the threat and underscored the need to rapidly integrate 1553 cyber protections. BusCop was designed as the most rapid and efficient way to provide effective 1553 cyber protection for DOD systems.
