Abstract: A system and method for performing a simulation of aircraft networks. Characteristics of components of the aircraft networks are identified. The aircraft networks include a first set of networks within a plurality of aircraft and a second set of networks configured for communication between the plurality of aircraft. Virtual implementations of the components are generated based on the characteristics of the components. A simulation of the aircraft networks is performed that includes the virtual implementations of the components processing virtual flight test data generated by the virtual implementations of the components. The virtual flight test data for the components in the aircraft networks is compared to actual flight test data from the components in the aircraft networks to form a comparison. The characteristics of the components are then modified based on the comparison.

Abstract: A method includes receiving first vehicle log data related to modification of a first software part at a first vehicle. The method also includes receiving first ground log data of a first ground system. The first ground log data indicates first chain-of-custody information regarding the first software part. The method further includes analyzing the first vehicle log data and the first ground log data based on baseline data to detect an anomaly. The method also includes sending a notification in response to detecting the anomaly.
