Digital architecture & cyber resilience advisory
Independent advice to help airport owners connect technology decisions with operational needs, from new terminals to the modernisation of existing systems.
On the airport’s side
Airport technology spans many suppliers, systems and teams. Each project needs to fit an overall architecture that supports safe, reliable operations and long-term change.
Pegasus Airport Digital Architecture & Cyber Resilience Advisory helps clients define that architecture, challenge technology choices and coordinate delivery. Our role is to represent the airport’s interests across vendors, systems integrators and engineering teams.
Discuss your airport’s priorities ↗Four connected areas of advice
01 / Architect
Establish how operational, business and technology systems should work together before committing to individual solutions. We help airport owners retain oversight of the digital architecture throughout terminal development and modernisation.
Typical outputs
Architecture blueprints, design principles and governance for technology decisions.
02 / Integrate
Align baggage handling, passenger processing, airport databases, access control, CCTV and building systems. We review interfaces, responsibilities and dependencies, including the fibre, Wi-Fi, private 5G and distributed antenna networks that support them.
Typical outputs
Integration requirements, interface and dependency maps, and independent review of supplier proposals.
03 / Secure
Assess how a security incident could move between IT and operational technology and affect airport services. We help align cybersecurity governance, network segmentation, incident response and recovery planning with operational priorities.
Typical outputs
A prioritised risk assessment, security architecture recommendations and a resilience improvement plan.
04 / Transform
Understand existing assets and dependencies before replacing them. We help airports assess where data, automation and AI-assisted discovery can improve visibility, then sequence modernisation around operational continuity and investment priorities.
Typical outputs
A phased transformation roadmap, use-case priorities and programme governance.
Where we can help
Define digital requirements early, establish who owns the overall architecture and review how proposed systems will integrate before procurement and implementation.
Build a clearer picture of assets, interfaces and operational dependencies. Identify what can be retained, what needs attention and how to phase upgrades while the airport continues to operate.
Bring operations, ICT and security teams together around shared risks, responsibilities and recovery priorities. Turn technical findings into decisions that airport leadership can act on.
A practical starting point
We begin by agreeing the airport’s priorities, scope and constraints. A focused review of available documentation, systems and stakeholder needs establishes the current position.
Findings are translated into a prioritised set of actions, with clear ownership, dependencies and a roadmap for delivery. The scope can extend to independent design reviews, programme oversight or interim technology leadership.
