Case Study: RSSB secures Britain’s rail network against cyber-attack with PA Consulting

Securing Britain’s rail network against cyber-attack with a robust strategy

PA Consulting worked with RSSB, the Rail Safety and Standards Board, to address the growing cyber risk facing Britain’s increasingly connected rail network. As more data moves between operators, Network Rail, and other stakeholders, RSSB needed a way to protect essential services from attack and reduce the risk of disruption across the network.

PA Consulting developed an innovative cyber security strategy covering attack scenarios, network-wide risks, and incident response. The approach also helped RSSB support compliance with the EU NIS Directive and encouraged a stronger security culture across the rail industry, giving staff and leaders clearer guidance on effective security measures.
