Who’d wish for a hacker having a train’s controls at their fingertips? Nobody – except for that hacker and other like-minded bad actors. What makes such a nightmare scenario possible is, of course, digitalization. As it transforms our lives, it is also a key part of today´s railways, and it makes it safer, more efficient, and convenient for both passengers and train operators. At the same time, digital systems expose railways to cybersecurity risks, so we need to take care that they are minimized as much as possible. Not an easy task: They are as versatile and dynamic as the whole digital world we live in. But luckily, that hacker up to no good has a counterpart, a team of cybersecurity experts that are attuned to this challenge – and meet it every day.
