Safeguarding Railways Through Integrated Safety and Cybersecurity Excellence
As railway systems grow increasingly digitised and interconnected, the imperative to protect them from cyber threats and to ensure safety-critical performance has never been greater. This immersive 5-day training programme offers professionals a comprehensive understanding of both cybersecurity and safety standards applicable to railway operational technology.
From the foundations of IEC 63452 (based on TS 50701) and ISO/IEC 27001 to advanced RAMS (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety) strategies governed by EN 50126, EN 50129 and EN 50716, this course gives participants the tools to safeguard infrastructure, modernise legacy systems, and assure compliance. Supported by case studies and real-world applications, participants will explore effective methods to assess risk, implement countermeasures, and integrate cybersecurity with safety assurance throughout the entire lifecycle of railway systems.
Why This Course Is Important
In the face of evolving cyber threats and complex technological integration, ensuring the resilience of railway systems is no longer optional—it is critical. Operational technology (OT) networks are particularly vulnerable due to legacy infrastructure, increasing connectivity, and diverse supplier ecosystems. Without a harmonised approach to safety and cybersecurity, organisations face increased risks of service disruption, reputational damage, and regulatory non-compliance.
This course equips professionals with the knowledge to proactively secure and certify railway systems using globally recognised standards and frameworks. It also bridges the operational gap between cybersecurity and safety-critical engineering, enabling organisations to deliver resilient, compliant, and future-ready rail systems.
Who Should Attend
This course is tailored for professionals involved in the development, operation, regulation, and oversight of railway systems, including:
-
Railway business leaders and operational managers
-
Safety assessors, planners, and compliance officers
-
Railway engineers, infrastructure designers, and systems integrators
-
IT and cybersecurity professionals specialising in transport systems
-
Regulatory inspectors and public safety officials
-
Resilience and risk management specialists in rail
