Sheila Like Latif said, THANK YOU!
As you know from the Seattle meeting with aviation industry representatives and the vendor community last fall, the Internet security protocols' interoperability is a key lynchpin in being able to ensure that the next generation of Internet enabled aircraft can establish secure communications in the global aviation environment. Aviation continues to be concerned that current IPv4 versions of IPsec, IKE, and IKEv2 still have vendor-to-vendor compatibility issues that would be difficult for us to overcome in a fully heterogeneous global environment. In our environment, an aircraft is continually making and breaking security associations between different service providers and air traffic management entities as it transverses from country to country and continent to continent. Thus our environment requires a very high degree of confidence in the ability of our systems to dynamically re-establish secure links with these new entities. We would encourage that interoperability testing fully include versions of IPSec, IKE, and IKEv2 to ensure these issues do not continue with IPv6 on which the next generations of global air traffic management will reply on (ICAO Document 9896). The testing ideally should demonstrate a vendor's system's ability to establish links with other vendors systems with minimal time and effort for setup and link customization as the ease-of-use and ease-of-deployment will be critical for a global aviation infrastructure. Unfortunately I will be unable to attend as I will in ICAO meetings that week, part of which will focus on these same issues.
