Under Scrutiny from Attackers and Regulators

Although the sector’s use of OT and IT solutions is not distinct from other industries, its heavy reliance on these technologies increases the potential impact of cyberattacks. Coupled with strict regulatory requirements, this sector must navigate some of the most pressing cybersecurity challenges outlined below.

Highly Targeted Industry

Threat actors perceive transportation organizations as more willing to pay ransoms to prevent downtime, making them a high-value target for phishing and ransomware. ReliaQuest customers in this sector face more than double the incidents compared to our customer average.

Subject to Regulations

Transportation agencies must often comply with governmental agencies like the TSA or CISA, which require robust cybersecurity solutions. These rules require them to, among other things, establish an incident response plan, collect and report incident data, and regularly perform vulnerability assessments.

Siloed IT and OT Environments

Because OT is typically on an isolated network, IT has no visibility into OT systems, reducing its ability to detect potential OT compromise. The difficulty of connecting such tools force analysts to pivot between tools during investigations, slowing down mean time to resolve (MTTR).

Higher Risk of Ransomware

Ransomware is the most common attack type against ReliaQuest customers in the transportation industry. According to our data, ransomware attacks have grown in frequency by nearly 30% year over year among automotive companies alone.
