Rise in the Importance of Regulation and it’s Accelerated Development

The implications of the rapid development and integration of advanced technologies into the transportation sector lead to a sharp increase in the need to refine and deepen supportive and up-to-date global regulations (existing and/or the development of new ones) in the context of CS.

Investment in Secure Transportation Infrastructure

The implications of the rapid development and integration of advanced technologies into the transportation sector lead to a sharp increase in the need to refine and deepen supportive and up-to-date global regulations (existing and/or the development of new ones) in the context of CS. This involves the integration of dedicated security-protection systems, both in terms of readiness and maturity of defense measures against the threat landscape, and the extensive investment required for developing these protection measures.

Expansion of Threat and Risk Landscape

Diverse technological vulnerabilities in various operating systems (primarily OT-IOT- IIOT) expand potential attack surfaces, especially in situations where these systems lack 'cyber protection' measures. There is a significant challenge in developing defense measures to keep pace with the rate of introduction and implementation of new advanced technologies.

Increase in Volume and Quality of Cyber Attacks

The volume of attacks has grown in line with the penetration of advanced and diverse technologies into the various A significant portion , realms of transportation of cyber-attacks indicates a high level of sophistication, such as source code breaches, major ransomware attacks, and the collection and leakage of data from critical transportation infrastructure systems.
