Cyber attacks targeted toward the transportation industry can have disastrous effects, including to passengers and operations. Without effective IT governance and security controls, public and private transportation organizations will only expedite the possibility of experiencing a malicious attack.
The transportation industry is driven by technology. The risks, from internal errors to external attacks, can grind everything to a halt and have disastrous consequences for transit agencies, businesses, and the public. Building a strong framework for IT governance and assessing security risks can keep everything moving forward and foster better integration between IT infrastructure and business objectives.
Business leaders hesitate to invest in governance because they think of it as an optional expense. IT leaders resist governance because they assume it will result in micromanagement. However, when properly designed and implemented, IT governance makes life easier for both sides.
IT risk is a major concern for any organization, public or private. To protect your data, your reputation, and your bottom line, you need an effective, dynamic IT risk management strategy.
Your organization already has security measures in place for your IT systems, but are you sure they are protecting your systems? The majority of security breaches take months — or even years — to discover. Even with security measures in place, your systems can harbor hidden vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit.
