Secure maintenance operations, capable of integration with legacy and new build rail vehicles, are needed to protect the integrity and reliability of rail passenger services. This presentation highlights potentially hazardous situations that might happen during software update and demonstrate how ‘Safety Related Application Control’ requirements can be met.

This project is supported by the UK’s Connected Places Catapult and being carried out by a team led by RazorSecure and in collaboration with the University of Birmingham’s BCRRE (Birmingham Centre for Railway Research & Education). It is funded under a UK innovation grant and includes open consultation with a broad range of manufacturers, operators, OEMs and asset owners.
