    Abstract: Systems and methods for pairing a personal electronic device of a passenger with a passenger seat in a vehicle using a PWM light identification, and for allowing the personal electronic device to control passenger in-seat functions and features. The system comprises an on-board video system having an in-seat display system for installation in a vehicle. The on-board video system is configured to communication a PWM light identification from a monitor of the in-seat display system which is captured by an imaging device of the personal electronic device. The on-board video system receives pairing information from the personal electronic device corresponding to the captured light identification via a wireless communication link. The on-board video system then validates the pairing information and pairs the personal electronic device to the passenger seat and authorizes the personal electronic device to control passenger seat functions associated with the passenger seat.

    Abstract: In the selective wiping of data stored on an aircraft Inflight Entertainment and Communications (IFEC) computer system, a potential attack indicator generated in response to a detection of an attack attempt that is received from a remote manager client computer system. The potential attack indicator includes an attack severity classification, which is correlated to one of a plurality of attack attempt responses. Each of the attack attempt responses correspond to a data sensitivity classification, and each predefined block of data stored on the IFEC computer system is assigned a data sensitivity classification. According to the attack attempt response that was correlated to the received attack severity classification, the predefined blocks of data assigned to the data sensitivity classification corresponding to the attack attempt response are deleted.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for securely accessing a transportation vehicle are provided. As an example, one method includes obtaining user specific secret information from a key server with a user device, without providing the user access to the user specific secret information; securely storing the user specific secret information in a memory of the user device; generating a challenge message for the user device with an LRU, the challenge message generated by the LRU using the user specific secret information also stored at the LRU and optionally an identifier identifying the LRU; generating a response to the challenge message by the user device using any user specific secret information and the challenge message; providing the response to the LRU; and validating the response by the LRU using any user specific secret information and the challenge message for authorizing access to the LRU by the user device.

    Abstract: A vehicle entertainment system including a server storing media files, and smart monitors. The system includes a server disposed in the vehicle to store media files; smart monitors disposed in the vehicle to present media selections to passengers corresponding to the media files stored by the server and receive an input from a passenger for playing one of the selections; seat boxes disposed in the vehicle, each seat box including network-attached storage and storing a subset of the media files stored by the server in said network-attached storage. Program logic executed by each smart monitor in which after a smart monitor receives an input from a passenger for one of the selections, performs tasks including: determining if a media file corresponding to the passenger's input is available from a first source, and if available, requesting streaming of the media file from the first source that may be networked attached storage.
