Callback to 2008 :<p>Boeing&#x27;s new 787 Dreamliner passenger jet may have a 
serious security vulnerability in its onboard computer networks that could allow passengers to access the plane&#x27;s control systems, according to the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration.<p>The computer network in the Dreamliner&#x27;s passenger compartment, designed to give passengers in-flight internet access, is connected to the plane&#x27;s control, navigation and communication systems, an FAA report reveals.<p>Boeing spokeswoman Lori Gunter wouldn&#x27;t go into detail about how Boeing is tackling the issue but says it is employing a combination of solutions that involves some physical separation of the networks, known as &quot;air gaps,&quot; and software firewalls. Gunter also mentioned other technical solutions, which she said are proprietary and didn&#x27;t want to discuss in public.<p>&quot;There are places where the networks are not touching, and there are places where they are,&quot; she said.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wired.com&#x2F;2008&#x2F;01&#x2F;dreamliner-security&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wired.com&#x2F;2008&#x2F;01&#x2F;dreamliner-security&#x2F;</a><p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;cryptome.info&#x2F;faa010208.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;cryptome.info&#x2F;faa010208.htm</a>
