“Cybersecurity for rail safety-critical systems is a new paradigm, the introduction of digitization and advanced technologies to the rail industry have turned a quite rigid, legacy-based environment into a dynamic, versatile and flexible one. As such, rail companies have become a more accessible target for cyber-attacks that can lead to severe implications for safety and operations. In fact, we have seen 173% increase in cyber-attacks targeting the rail industry in the past two years. Indian rail operators are adding more number of kms of track every year but also on a corporate level, a robust cyber strategy planning is required to protect the critical infrastructure; firewalls or antivirus software will not protect them, said Ashish. National Cyber Security Strategy 2020 is an attempt to revise and strengthen the 2013 version with a vision to ensure a safe, secure, trusted, resilient and vibrant cyber space for our Nation’s prosperity.
