Introduction

This Cybersecurity Monitoring, Event Management, and Incident Response in Intelligent Transportation Systems training course cover the most important activities to be performed in a strong defense system against cyberattacks to an ITS. After the recent “supply chain attack” on cybersecurity companies in the USA such as SolarWinds early in December 2020, cyberspace and all it entails including ITS is no longer the same. The SolarWinds cybersecurity breach is perhaps the major one thus far and has demonstrated that no system, no matter how carefully designed, is secure. The scale, significance, and damage of this incident is huge and will likely grow as more details of the breach being discovered.

Although the SolarWinds breach affected only the confidentiality of data, it is just a matter of time before other security properties such as application-related data integrity are also compromised by similar attacks. If data integrity related to any physical real-world functionality such as the ITS infrastructure is compromised this can lead to disastrous consequences in the industry. Cybersecurity requires resilience as well as strong defenses and delegates attending this training course will get a deep understanding of crucial steps to achieve such generic requirements in an ITS environment.

This training course will highlight:

• The ITS Environment and Architecture
• Role of Enterprises, IT, Infrastructure, Autonomous vehicles, Communications, and Data
• ITS Cybersecurity Threats, Vulnerabilities, Risk Assessment and Mitigation
• ITS information monitoring and Incident Response
• Most significant ITS and Cybersecurity Standards
• Current and Future Cybersecurity Practices
