Understanding Linux namespaces
This technical white paper aims to move beyond the ‘black box’ abstraction to explore the Linux kernel primitives that ensure the isolation and security of containerised environments.
Eco-Design & Life Cycle Assessment
As sustainability expectations rise and resources become increasingly limited, industries must shift toward more circular, responsible models. That means embedding environmental thinking directly into design processes—and understanding the full impact of products and systems across their entire life cycle.
From material selection to end-of-life strategies, eco-design and life cycle assessment (LCA) are critical tools for building more sustainable and resilient industrial ecosystems.
Why Airbus Protect?
At Airbus Protect, we help organisations transform environmental ambition into tangible design and operational practices. By combining proven eco-design methods with deep expertise in LCA, we support clients in assessing their environmental footprint and identifying opportunities to reduce it—without compromising performance.
Our teams work closely with clients to anticipate the environmental impact of projects from the start, develop more circular approaches, and ensure critical resources are used wisely. We embed sustainability into every phase of the lifecycle, building long-term value and resilience.
Our areas of expertise
Ecodesign Methods & Tools
- Application of eco-design principles at system and component level
- Integration of sustainability goals into engineering requirements and product development
- Use of proprietary tools and best practices to guide decision-making
Repurposing of Material by Design
- Upstream consideration of material reuse, second life, and repurposing options
- Support in choosing materials with circularity potential
- Design strategies that reduce waste and extend product lifespan
End of Life / Circularity
- Assessment of product end-of-life scenarios, including dismantling and recycling
- Circularity planning across the value chain
- Support in defining reuse, refurbishing, and recycling strategies from the design phase
Life Cycle Assessment
- Environmental footprint assessments aligned with ISO 14040/44
- LCA from cradle to grave, tailored to product, system, or project level
- Interpretation of results to guide eco-innovation and strategy decisions
Critical & Strategic Raw Materials
- Identification and management of resource-related risks
- Assessment of sourcing strategies and raw material dependencies
- Recommendations for substitution or diversification of critical materials
Projects involvement
Developing a dynamic ecodesign platform for engineering teams
For a major aerospace and defence organisation, we are building a methodological platform designed to guide engineering teams in integrating ecodesign principles throughout product development. The platform provides access to tools, resources, and methodologies for assessing and minimising environmental impact at system and component level.
It is designed as a collaborative and evolving space, adapting continuously to the organisation’s sustainability goals and ecodesign roadmap.

Transnational SOC Team Crowned ‘Boss of the SOC – Bullet’ 2023
Airbus Protect SOC teams win Bulletproof competition Previously crowned as Global ‘Boss of the SOC’ Champions, two transnational Airbus Protect SOC Teams competed in an invitational ‘Bulletproof’ competition in the same format. Once again an Airbus Protect team was declared champion, with a second Airbus Protect team managing a very creditable 5th of the 31 [...]
Cybersecurity jargon busting: MDR, SOC, EDR, XDR, SOAR and SIEM
MDR, SOC, EDR, XDR, SOAR and SIEM, what does it all mean? In cyber-security, we’re notorious for using an abundance of two, three and even four-word acronyms. If you’re new to the space, these can be confusing, to say the least. To make things a little easier, we’ve created this guide! It explains some of [...]
