Alstom and Cylus roll-out advanced rail cybersecurity solution to protect the Tel-Aviv Red line Urbalis signalling system

Alstom, in partnership with Cylus, integrated in its CBTC an advanced rail cybersecurity solution on the Tel-Aviv Red line to improve the protection of the line’s signalling and train control systems. CylusOne is a rail-specific, multi-layered, cybersecurity solution powered by advanced Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning technology. The construction of the line is managed by NTA Metropolitan Mass Transit System.

The CylusOne solution monitors all in-transit data within critical signalling, control and communications networks, without impacting the physical or technical design. It also analyses the data to detect abnormalities or attack patterns. If an irregularity is detected, threat alerts are immediately brought to the attention of the rail network’s operations team, along with remediation playbooks, to respond to the impending threats.
