Cybersecurity in Transit Systems
The COVID-19 pandemic is having a profound effect on every infrastructure sector in
North America, including transit systems, and on the information technology and operational
technology systems that are embedded in their ongoing operations.
The TRB Transit Cooperative Research Program's
TCRP Synthesis 158: Cybersecurity in Transit Systems
identifies and documents
emerging cybersecurity trends related to teleworking/remote worker offices, contactless customer
services, real-time information services, transit-on-demand services, and cyber resilience affecting
transit agencies now and in the near future as a consequence of the digital acceleration stimulated
by the global pandemic of 2020–2021.
