The rise of digitalization has led to more interconnected rail systems. While this has propelled forward our trains and metros at some seriously high speed, it has also dramatically expanded the threat landscape.
In response, governments around the world are racing to implement measures that promote technological advancements for these rail systems whilst assuring that the systems are protected and secure. Sure, it's easy to think about providing timely service, operating efficiently, delivery comfort, keeping up constant communications, and more – but what really matters is that these digital data centers remain safe as they travel between and arrive at various stations both out in the sticks and in the heart of the cities.
Where does this leave rail companies? What steps should they take in the event of a cyberattack?
Listen in as Sean speaks with Amir Levintal as they get on track as they dig into the elements of the rail systems from the sensors to the tracks to the WiFi and more. It doesn't take long before they jump the rails to test the boundaries of reality.
