Abstract: / SG17 informs TSAG and other study groups about our discussion result as for WTSA-16 Res. 94.

At its meeting in March 2017, SG17held detailed discussions on our response to WTSA-16 Resolution 94 on Standardization work in the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector for cloud-based event data technology. We agreed that our effortshould be led by Q4/17 (Cybersecurity).

SG17 observed potential value of event data recorders (EDR) to broader industry sectors beyond the aviation industry.As the core of the event data technologies, security of EDR could be studied in Q4/17 as well as in other Questions of SG 17. SG 17plans to evaluate existing, evolving and new Recommendations within Q4/17 with respect to cloud-based event data technology toward the next SG17 meeting.

This issue is complex and SG 17wants to avoid increasing complexity by a sector-specific approach. Similarly, SG17 would welcome involvement in the planning of the workshop(s) that WTSA-16 Resolution 94 requested be set up to collect requirements and inputs on this topic from a wide range of various stakeholders.
