CABBA: Compatible Authenticated Bandwidth-efficient Broadcast protocol for ADS-B

The Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is a surveillance technology that becomes mandatory in many airspaces. It improves safety, increases efficiency and reduces air traffic congestion by broadcasting aircraft navigation data. Yet, ADS-B is vulnerable to spoofing attacks as it lacks mechanisms to ensure the integrity and authenticity of the data being supplied. None of the existing cryptographic solutions fully meet the backward compatibility and bandwidth preservation requirements of the standard. Hence, we propose the Compatible Authenticated Bandwidth-efficient Broadcast protocol for …
