Transportation

A delayed flight is inconvenient. A compromised system grounds an airport.

HANDD helps airports, airlines, rail operators, and ports move passenger and cargo data securely, prevent it from leaking, defend safety-critical systems against attacks that halt operations, connect authorities and carriers that were never built to share data, and modernise the legacy platforms still running critical infrastructure.

Overview

One passenger, one shipment, a dozen authorities in between.

Transportation operators carry a distinct combination of pressures: passenger and cargo data that must move securely across airlines, ports, rail operators, customs, and border authorities; that same data — passenger records, cargo manifests, advance passenger information — at constant risk of leaking through everyday channels; safety-critical operational technology, from air traffic control to rail signalling to port automation, that is a standing target for attackers; legacy systems running baggage handling, interlocking, and terminal operations that are too critical to take offline; and authorities and carriers that were never designed to share data in real time. Tackled separately, these become a different vendor and a different risk register for every problem.

HANDD brings Managed File Transfer, Data Loss Prevention, AI Security, iPaaS, Application Modernisation, and the services around them together under one operating model — so operations, security, and compliance teams work from the same evidence base.

Key industry challenges

Aviation, rail, and maritime run on systems built for a slower, more trusting era.

Cargo and passenger data still crosses borders the slow way

Manifests, passenger records, and customs declarations still move through legacy EDI, email, or unsecured FTP between carriers, ports, and authorities.

A leaked manifest or passenger record has real-world consequences

Cargo and passenger data exposure can enable fraud, smuggling, or identity theft long before anyone notices a breach.

Safety-critical systems are now attack targets

Air traffic control, rail signalling, and port automation face a growing volume of attacks that stop physical movement — and AI-driven traffic tools introduce new access risks.

Every authority runs its own system

Airlines, ground handlers, customs, port operators, and rail control centres rarely share data in real time, forcing manual reconciliation at every handoff.

Critical infrastructure runs on systems that predate the internet

Baggage handling, interlocking, and terminal operating systems are costly to run and near-impossible to take offline for an upgrade.

One shipment, three regulators, three sets of evidence

Civil aviation authorities, port authorities, and rail safety bodies each expect their own audit trail, on their own timeline.

HANDD solutions

Keeping people and cargo moving, securely, end to end.

Managed File Transfer (MFT)

Replace legacy EDI, email, and unsecured FTP with a single, governed platform for cargo manifests, passenger data, and customs exchanges — encrypted, monitored, and fully auditable.

Data Loss Prevention (DLP)

Stop passenger and cargo data leaving through email or unmanaged endpoints — before it enables fraud, smuggling, or a breach notification.

AI Security

Defend air traffic control, rail signalling, and port automation systems against attacks, and govern how AI-driven logistics tools access operational data.

iPaaS

Connect airline, ground handling, customs, port, and rail control systems through a single integration platform — closing the real-time gaps between authorities.

Application Modernisation

Modernise legacy baggage handling, interlocking, and terminal operating systems in stages — reducing risk without halting live operations.

More Capabilities..

Delivered your way: every solution above can be consumed as a managed service — Compliance as a ServiceMFT as a Service, or ongoing Managed Services support — so your team gets the outcome without carrying all of the operational load.

Compliance and governance

One audit trail, every civil aviation, port, and rail authority you answer to.

Global Frameworks

ICAO Annex 17 & IMO ISPS Code

Meet international civil aviation and maritime security standards with encrypted, policy-backed transfer controls for passenger and cargo data.

Regional & Local

Local & Regional Compliance

From national civil aviation authorities to port and rail safety regulators, we help you produce the same audit trail wherever you operate.

Production Use Cases

The exchanges where downtime is measured in cost per minute.

Cargo manifest & customs exchange

MFT — secure transfer of manifests and declarations between ports, airports, and customs.

Passenger data exchange

MFT — encrypted delivery of passenger records between airlines, authorities, and ground handlers.

Passenger data leak prevention

DLP — stopping passenger records leaving through email or unmanaged endpoints.

Cargo & customs data protection

DLP — safeguarding shipment and manifest data from unauthorised disclosure.

Rail signalling & port automation defence

AI Security — protecting the OT systems controlling trains and cranes from attack.

Governing AI in traffic & logistics

AI Security — controlling how AI tools access scheduling and operational data.

Airport & airline systems integration

iPaaS — connecting departure control, baggage, and ground handling systems.

Port community system integration

iPaaS — connecting terminal, customs, and shipping line systems in one view.

Air traffic & rail interlocking modernisation

Application Modernisation — phased upgrade of safety-critical control systems.

Baggage & terminal system modernisation

Application Modernisation — upgrading legacy systems without halting operations.

Secure Transportation Data Flow

Every handoff, logged. Every system, accountable.

Assess

Map every passenger, cargo, and inter-authority data flow, and identify where risk and compliance gaps sit today.

Secure

Apply encryption, role-based access, transfer policies, and key management aligned to ICAO, IMO, and ISO 27001 standards.

 

Automate

Turn manual cargo, passenger, and inter-authority handoffs into governed, repeatable workflows.

Monitor

Track transfer status, failed deliveries, and anomalous activity across the estate in one view.

 

Report

Produce audit-ready evidence for internal governance, external auditors, and regulators on request.
