THE TRANSPORT CYBERSECURITY TOOLKIT



What is the Transport Cybersecurity Toolkit?

The Transport Cybersecurity Toolkit is a repository of tips and recommended
practices to enhance cybersecurity and cyber-resilience in the transport sector.
The European Commission published it on 16 December 2020.

According to the European Commission, cybersecurity is becoming a growing
concern for the transport industry. Yet, many employees remain insufficiently
aware of the risks, and their actions may sometimes inadvertently open the door
to attackers.

Against this background, the transport cybersecurity toolkit aims at
contributing to greater levels of cyber-awareness and cyber-hygiene, with a
specific focus on the transport sector. It addresses transport organisations,
regardless of their size and domain of activity.

Concretely, the toolkit contains basic information on four threats that may
affect transport organisations: malware diffusion, denial of service,
unauthorised access and theft, and software manipulation.

For each of those threats, the toolkit lists good mitigating practices, which
are relevant for all transport staff, regardless of their occupation.

The toolkit also contains a more advanced level, which provides information that
is particularly relevant for security and cybersecurity professionals in
transport organisations. This advanced level is organised by transport mode:
air, maritime and land. For each transport mode, the toolkit provides guidance
on identifying, protecting, detecting, and responding to cyber-threats.

The toolkit provides awareness paths targeting:

- All transport staff. It targets all staff of transport organisations, from
staff in transport service operations to administrative staff. It provides
guidance towards an increased understanding and awareness of the most common
cyber threats targeting transport services and systems. Additionally, it
provides insights on how to deal with potential cyber threats, including
identifying, reporting, and mitigating them by cybersecurity good practices.

- Transport decision-makers in cybersecurity across the different transport
modes. It targets staff who have decision-making responsibilities for
cybersecurity in transport organisations. This path highlights good practices
tailored to the different transport modes for enhancing cybersecurity posture of
transport organisations. In particular, it provides good practices in order to
identify, protect, detect, and respond to emerging cyber threats targeting
transport organisations.







The NIS 2 Directive of the European Union entered into force the 16th of January
2023.

In Article 1 (subject matter of the NIS 2 Directive), we learn that NIS 2 lays
down cybersecurity risk management measures and reporting obligations for
entities of a type referred to in Annex I or II.

In Annex I (Sectors of High Criticality), we find that the transport sector is
in the scope of the NIS 2 Directive.

NIS 2 sets out the baseline for cybersecurity risk-management measures and
reporting obligations across the sectors that fall within its scope. In order to
avoid the fragmentation of cybersecurity provisions of Union legal acts, where
further sector-specific Union legal acts pertaining to cybersecurity
risk-management measures and reporting obligations are considered to be
necessary to ensure a high level of cybersecurity across the European Union, the
Commission should assess whether such further provisions could be stipulated in
an implementing act under this Directive.

The growing interdependencies are the result of an increasingly cross-border and
interdependent network of service provision using key infrastructures across the
Union in sectors such as energy, transport, digital infrastructure, drinking
water and waste water, health, certain aspects of public administration, as well
as space in so far as the provision of certain services depending on
ground-based infrastructures that are owned, managed and operated either by
Member States or by private parties is concerned, therefore not covering
infrastructures owned, managed or operated by or on behalf of the Union as part
of its space programme.

Those interdependencies mean that any disruption, even one initially confined to
one entity or one sector, can have cascading effects more broadly, potentially
resulting in far-reaching and long-lasting negative impacts in the delivery of
services across the internal market. The intensified cyberattacks during the
COVID-19 pandemic have shown the vulnerability of increasingly interdependent
societies in the face of low-probability risks.

Cyber Risk GmbH believes that the Transport Cybersecurity Toolkit must become a
part of the NIS 2 implementation in the transport sector.


Our training programs

Cyber Risk GmbH is offering training programs in some difficult areas, like the
new NIS 2 Directive of the European Union that changes the compliance
requirements of many entities in the transport sector (air, rail, water and road
subsectors), and programs that assist the Board of Directors and the CEO in
understanding cybersecurity challenges.
