Protecting your information

We take the security of your personal information very seriously and have implemented policies and procedures, including technical measures, that are designed to help safeguard it. While we strive to use best practices to protect your personal information, the Internet and computer technology are not 100% secure and we cannot absolutely ensure the security of any personal information that you provide to us. In line with this philosophy, we try to get as little information from you as possible.

AXIS Aviation "Vulnerability disclosure"

If you have come across a potential security vulnerability within our scope, please report it by sending an email to security@axis-aviation.com. Include the following information in your email:

  • The website or service where the vulnerability was discovered.
  • A brief description of the vulnerability class (such as "XSS vulnerability"). Please refrain from sharing any details that would allow the issue to be reproduced at this point.

To expedite the triage process, we request that reporters provide a benign proof of exploitation whenever possible, avoiding destructive actions that could result in duplicate or malicious reports for some types of vulnerabilities (such as sub-domain takeovers). If you have any doubts or questions, please don't hesitate to email security@axis-aviation.com for advice.

After receiving your initial email, our Security Team will send you an acknowledgement reply email, usually within 24 hours. This email will contain a ticket reference number that you can use in any further communications with our Security Team.

Our Security Team will triage the reported vulnerability and respond to you as soon as possible to confirm if further information is required. At this point, the necessary remediation work will be assigned to the appropriate Axis Aviation teams and/or suppliers, with priority given based on the severity of impact and complexity of exploitation.

Please note that vulnerability reports may take some time to triage and remediate. Our Security Team will notify you when the reported vulnerability is resolved and will ask you to confirm that the solution adequately addresses the vulnerability. Please refrain from sending your proof of exploit in the initial plaintext email if the vulnerability is still exploitable.

Changes to this Data Protection Policy

AXIS Aviation reserves the right to adapt its security and data protection measures, provided this is necessary as a result of technical or legal developments. In these cases, we will also update our data protection information accordingly. Please make sure, therefore, that you always use the latest version of our data protection declaration.
