European Rail Cyber Security Working Group 11th & 12th November 2017

The acceleration of the’European digital railway’introduces vulnerabilities to an infrastructure historically isolated from’cyber attacks. The rail industry and its ecosystem now have an even greater responsibility to ensure the safety and security of the network, and will need to learn how to adapt and mitigate evolving threats quickly.

Following on from the’Cyber Senate Rail Cyber Security Summit’in 2015 and 2016, we introduce to you the’European Rail Cyber Security Working Group, proposed by key stakeholders from our community. The focus of the working group will be to provide a unique face to face, brainstorming platform for those involved in cyber securing rail infrastructure, both IT and OT, to formulate actionable takeaways that can assist in developing a cohesive European vision for the industry moving forward.
