With the February 2026 deadline for EASA Part-IS compliance fast approaching, aviation organizations are under increasing pressure to integrate robust Information Security Management Systems (ISMS) into their existing safety frameworks.

To support the industry through this transition, Steve Bentley (FRAeS), CEO of Sofema Aviation Services, will host a live, interactive online ISMS Q&A Session on Wednesday, 7th January 2026, from 10:30 to 12:00 (Sofia, Bulgaria time).

Why Attend?

Information security is no longer just an "IT issue" - it is a fundamental pillar of aviation safety. Maintenance organizations (Part 145), CAMOs, and operators must demonstrate how they protect flight-critical data and systems from cyber threats.

Event Details:

• Speaker: Steve Bentley, CEO of Sofema Aviation Services

• Date: 7th January 2026

• Time: 10:30 – 12:00 (Sofia, Bulgaria time)

• Format: Live Online Q&A

• "The transition to Part-IS is a marathon, not a sprint, but the clock is ticking," says Steve Bentley. "Our goal for this session is to strip away the complexity and provide clear, actionable guidance that Quality Managers and Accountable Managers can use immediately."
