The advancement of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles / Systems has matured at a rapid rate. There is an increase popularity in market trends towards the concept of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) with the socialization of autonomous vehicles. The Urban Air Mobility (UAM) industry will face similar threats to already unresolved airport SCADA threats/vulnerabilities. Their cybersecurity vulnerabilities are similar to autonomous vehicles, since they both rely on sensors for navigation, acceleration, and obstacle avoidance. The presentation will review the feasible multi-vector attacks and impact for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) using the following components - Sensor Spoof, Electro Magnetic Interference, LiDAR Vulnerability, Acoustic Attack, Accelerometers Sensors, Gyroscopes. Countermeasures remain a challenge in the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) space industry presenting a new threat to the aeronautical community.
