Abstract
Embodiments of the inventive concepts disclosed herein are directed to systems and methods for providing secured communications via an avionics power bus network. The power bus network can have a plurality of power bus domains, for providing power to at least two endpoint systems. The avionics power bus network can incorporate a plurality of network access interfaces, and each of the network access interfaces may provide power bus isolation between at least two of the power bus domains, and/or network communications isolation across at least two power bus domains. A network gateway may configure communications between the two endpoint systems through one or more of the network access interfaces, and for validating credentials to permit the communications to be transmitted through some of the power bus domains. The network gateway can be accessed via a network access point to configure the communications.
