As public transportation evolves, bus systems face new risks. Many systems still rely on older technology (outdated OT devices – such as standalone diagnostic tools), which wasn’t built to handle today’s complex cyber attacks. While modern buses use technologies like collision avoidance (ADAS) and dedicated short-range communications (DSRC) for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication to enhance safety and efficiency, some critical systems like telematics and vehicle control units (VCU) are often overlooked. This leaves them vulnerable to potential threats, highlighting the need for strong cyber security controls to protect the entire bus ecosystem. Public Wi-Fi also presents a hidden […]
