Rail Cyber Security

Cyber attacks on rail critical infrastructure are rising, and a stronger cyber solution is required to protect and secure the most mission-critical networks of rail operations. When 100% prevention from online cyber-attacks is required, there is no better solution than Waterfall’s Unidirectional Security Gateways.

In the age of increased business demand for sharing of railway operational and signaling system data to non-secure networks, Rail system operators urgently need cybersecurity designs and solutions that can meet the challenge of sharing of information while preventing cyber-attacks.

Trusted globally by the world’s most secure infrastructures, the Unidirectional Security Gateway provides an un-hackable, worry-free defense against the most sophisticated online attacks. In fact, with thousands of deployments globally since the founding of Waterfall in 2007, not a single online attack has successfully penetrated the Unidirectional Security Gateway.

To further emphasize the importance of Unidirectional Gateways in the reference architectures of rail transport designs, the IEC 62443 and the TS 50701 standards have recommended that Unidirectional Gateways be deployed at the critical segmentation boundaries between secure operational networks and non-secure networks.
