With the increasing digitalisation of the rail sector, safeguarding the cybersecurity of our critical systems is a vital component to maintaining the seamless operations of our railway lines. Recognising the growing risks and complexities within the rail cybersecurity landscape, SBS Transit has entered into a strategic collaboration with Cervello, pioneer and leader in rail cybersecurity, and ST Engineering, a global technology, defense, and engineering group. Cervello was selected by SBS Transit to secure its rail critical information infrastructure after carefully considering the most advanced solutions available.
SBS Transit has appointed ST Engineering as the System Integrator to implement Cervello's end-to-end railway cybersecurity solutions, enabling SBS Transit to enhance monitoring, safeguarding the backbone of SBS Transit's transportation network and ensuring the resilience and reliability of essential services in Singapore and promote Cervello solutions internationally.
Cervello Platform delivers maximum protection with zero disruption at rapid deployment for the entire rail infrastructure and turns data across all network environments into operational insights for better transportation service. Cervello’s patented threat detection technology harnesses AI-based behavioural analysis to swiftly detect and identify even the most sophisticated threats. This proactive approach ensures rapid responses to security incidents while maintaining operational efficiency.
Driven by a shared mission to advance innovation and cybersecurity within the rail industry, this partnership enhances security of vital transportation systems while preserving the commuter experience, providing a safe and secure transportation system.
Jeffrey Sim, Group Chief Executive of SBS Transit said: "Enhancing cybersecurity is an ongoing journey, never a destination, as we increasingly face new and advanced cyber threats. Hence, we continuously focus on building our cybersecurity defences and capabilities, ensuring that we adopt the latest technology and meet the highest standards while complying with regulatory requirements. This collaboration with Cervello paves the way for the implementation of a Cybersecurity Monitoring and Detection solution that safeguards our assets from cyber threats as well as strengthen the security and resilience of our rail infrastructure.”
