Cybersecurity & UITP
Public transport networks are attacked not because they’re targeted, but because they’re vulnerable. And every automated system or piece of digital infrastructure, from ticketing to track signalling, is susceptible to a cyberattack which can have dire consequences.
Cybersecurity is not just a software issue – in fact, 85% of all breaches have a human factor. That makes training, awareness, and testing as much a part of cybersecurity as firewalls and anti-virus programmes.
To develop effective strategies and practical cybersecurity architecture, UITP brings together experts from across the world of public transport. Together, we share knowledge to make public transport more secure – digitally and physically.
Research Projects
UITP coordinates and collaborates with operators, authorities, industry, and international organisations on a number of research projects.
AI4CCAM
Designing trustworthy AI and cybersecurity solutions to be integrated for autonomous vehicles.
TEADAL
Creating trusted, verifiable, and energy-efficient data flows and data lakes across Europe.
