Transport & Logistics: Securing Supply Chains
Air, rail, water, road. The transport sector is critical infrastructure. NIS2 demands cybersecurity for all modes of transport.
All Transport Modes Affected
NIS2 covers the entire transport sector
Critical Assets in Transport
These systems must be protected
Traffic Control Centers
Air traffic control, signal boxes, traffic management: real-time critical systems.
Booking Systems
