Are you prepared for the February 2026 EASA Part-IS compliance deadline?
The European aviation environment is evolving. Information security and cyber threats are no longer confined to IT departments.

 

They are critical safety hazards. EASA’s new Part-IS (Information Security) regulations mandate a sophisticated approach to risk management, specifically recommending the Bowtie Methodology to bridge the gap between digital security and physical safety.

Sofema Online presents the definitive solution:

Using Bowtie Risk Assessment to Comply with EASA Part-IS

This course empowers Safety Managers, Compliance Officers, and IT Security professionals to master the "Interacting Bowtie" model - the industry-standard tool for visualising and managing complex cyber-safety risks.

Course type: Presentation without voice over
Duration equivalent to half-day classroom training
Category: Core Competency Accelerator
Price: 69.00 EUR

Why This Course is Critical for Your Organisation

• Bridge the Gap Between Safety & Security: Learn the "Handshake" protocol that translates technical IT threats (e.g., malware, phishing) into operational safety language (e.g., loss of control), ensuring seamless communication between your CISO and Safety Manager.
• Visualise the Invisible: Move beyond dense spreadsheets. Master the Bowtie diagram to create a clear "Line of Sight" from a cyber threat to an aviation accident, making risk understandable for everyone from the hangar floor to the boardroom.
• Achieve Performance-Based Compliance: Don't just tick boxes. Learn to evaluate Barrier Effectiveness (Green/Amber/Red) and perform dynamic gap analyses that satisfy EASA auditors, moving from simple compliance to true risk performance.
• Apply Real-World Solutions: Gain practical experience with specific case studies for Ground Operations, Part-145 Maintenance, and CAMO, using real-world data to validate your defences against "Swiss Cheese" failures.

What You Will Master

• The "Interacting Bowtie" Model: How to link a "Security Bowtie" (Data Integrity) directly to a "Safety Bowtie" (Safe Flight Operations) as per EASA ED Decision 2025/014/R.
• Barrier Defence Strategies: How to design robust defences using Passive (Hardware), Active (Software), and Behavioural (People) controls.
• Workshop Leadership: Techniques like SWIFT (Structured What-If Technique) to lead multidisciplinary workshops and identify hidden hazards.
• Standardised Nomenclature: Align your risk management vocabulary with UK CAA, EASA, and FAA standards.
