This link seems to verify the accuracy...

Very interesting reading.

Airbus appear to want the FAA to promote physical isolation...
"The only possible solution to such a requirement would be to physically segregate the Passenger Information and Entertainment Domain from the other domains."

Whereas the FAA appear to want to allow design flexibility and put the responsibility on the manufacturers...

"We agree that Airbus's interpretation of zero allowance for any ``inadvertent or malicious changes to, and all adverse impacts'' to airplane systems, networks, hardware, software, and data is correct. However, this does not prevent allowing appropriate access if the design incorporates robust security protection means and procedures to prevent inadvertent and intentional actions that could adversely impact airplane systems, functionality, and airworthiness."

and

"The applicant is responsible for developing a design compliant with these special conditions and other applicable regulations. The design may include specific technology and architecture features, as well as operator requirements, operational procedures and security measures, and maintenance procedures and requirements, to ensure an appropriate implementation that can be properly used and maintained to ensure safe operations and continued operational safety."
