INDUSTRY
Complex and increasingly connected, rail and station networks and associated cyber-physical systems are vulnerable to cyber threats and disruption of vital systems that can cause delays.
To keep passengers and cargo moving safely, cybersecurity teams need a platform that discovers and monitors all connected OT and IoT devices, prioritizes the problems that matter most and provides clear context for what to do next.
From ticketing sytems to building management, to CCTV and tunnel ventilation, modern rail networks encompass a wide OT & IoT attack surface that's critical to secure in order to keep operations running.
A targeted cyber-attack on rail signaling infrastructure is the threat that keeps many rail operators up at night. Because signaling systems control train movement and spacing, malicious interference could directly endanger passenger safety — making them an attractive target for adversaries seeking maximum disruption.
An assessment at a large rail client found that the third-party OEM managing building management systems (BMS) across rail stations was transmitting key asset data in cleartext, failing to apply firmware updates, and retaining credentials for users who had left the organization.
Vendor access and hygiene practices are often outside direct operator control, yet they can expose critical infrastructure to significant risk.
Significant vulnerabilities in CCTV and IP camera infrastructure have allowed attackers to remotely access video feeds, plan physical attacks, or use compromised devices as a foothold to launch further intrusions.
Rogue wireless access points compound this risk, providing additional vectors for attackers to penetrate secure networks or exfiltrate sensitive data.
The Nozomi Networks platform anticipates cybersecurity risks within your rail transportation OT and IoT equipment, helping you to understand what's on your network, so you can respond quickly.
