In this interview with Global Railway Review, Cervello co-founder and CEO Roie Onn shares his perspective on the challenges of cyber-securing the rail industry and the importance of utilising railway-specific technologies that are developed by cyber-security experts with proven rail experience.
What do you consider the biggest cyber-security challenges to be that the railway sector is currently facing?
Despite the advanced automation and digital services, the rail sector is still behind other industries in terms of cyber-security implementation and this is creating more and more challenges. Within the railway network, several systems are responsible for different aspects of the day-to-day operation, and all should be eventually cyber secure.
