Dear everyone,

I’d like to **launch a poll to inquire on the cyber security requirements** , opinions and desires of community members with regard PX4 Autopilot (including the flight stack, drivers and associated tooling). Poll is rather short (about **3 minutes** ) and a _complement to the upcoming speech_ on cyber security at the Summit this year [https://px4developersummitvirtual2020.sched.com/event/cnun/the-cybersecurity-status-of-px4](https://px4developersummitvirtual2020.sched.com/event/cnun/the-cybersecurity-status-of-px4).

Please contribute filling the survey at [https://forms.gle/Nzs2fXiFrNTPFaQg6](https://forms.gle/Nzs2fXiFrNTPFaQg6)

For those that care (or wonder), shortly, the data will be consumed to reason on how teams of security defenders like mine at [Alias Robotics](https://aliasrobotics.com/) will:

- a) sample the interest and concerns on cyber security within PX4 (which will hopefully empower us to further dedicate resources) and
- b) receive input on how to steer our efforts to extend our existing [Robot Immune System (RIS)](https://aliasrobotics.com/ris.php) for drones. _In a nutshell, RIS is a solution for operators that provides proactive defenses and cyber security means_.

In addition, if requested, I’d also be happy to share anonymously results and work with community managers (ping @rroche and @LorenzMeier, among others) and to filter/publish this data for wider availability.

I think the form needs updated permissions

Thanks @rroche! Should be fixed now.
