For railway companies, safe and trouble-free operations and passenger satisfaction are of paramount importance. In view of the rapid pace of digitalization, transport infrastructure operators must future-proof their existing ICT systems. This applies in particular to performance, scalability, and, above all, cybersecurity. Examples include networked passenger information systems (PIS) and electronic interlocking systems (EIS), which are responsible for controlling train traffic and points and must be protected against cyberattacks.
Although increasing connectivity and the use of modern technologies are boosting efficiency, they also bring new risks. Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure are no longer a rarity and can significantly impair operations. Against this backdrop, the NIS2 Directive prescribes stricter security measures across Europe, which are supplemented by national regulations such as the IT Security Act (IT-SiG). Railway companies are therefore required to actively protect their networks against threats from cyberspace and ensure NIS2 compliance.
