Rising number of cyber attacks
Modern railways are equipped with advanced system that requires active internet to regulate its operations by transmitting and receiving signals with the control station. Hence, it is easy to hack the system if the loophole is discovered by a hacker, making the network vulnerable to the attack. For instance, in 2016, the Network Rail UK was attacked by hackers four times in a year. Although this attack caused less damage to the entire system, the prevalence of such cyber-attacks is becoming increasingly common. Such cyber-attacks are creating a demand for secure and operational effective railway systems, which need to be equipped with cybersecurity solutions, thereby creating a significant growth during the forecast period

Germany registered 0.07 million passenger–kilometers in 1998, which attained 0.10 million passenger-kilometers in 2019. Moreover, Japan registered 0.39 million passenger-kilometers in 1998, which reached 0.45 million passenger-kilometers in 2019. Moreover, in 2019, the U.S. witnessed around 60% increase in rail ridership since 1997, and is expected to continue the same trend in the near future. Rail transit in the U.S. is holding around 48% of the total public transit. Railway has witnessed a significant rise in ridership, and is expected to continue in the coming years.
By Type
Infrastructural segment is projected as the most lucrative segments
Moreover, rail transit in the U.S. is holding around 48% of the total public transit. Railway has witnessed a significant rise in ridership, and is expected to continue in the coming years. Thus, increase in ridership is expected to create demand for cost-effective and operational efficient rail solutions equipped smart technologies such as semi-autonomous or automated operations along with railway analytics solutions. Such smart technologies are expected to deliver various services, such as passenger & freight operations management, safety & security monitoring, rail communication & networking, and ticketing system, which are expected to create a requirement for safe data transmission and cyber solutions for effective operations. Thus, growing capacity of passenger and freight capacity is expected to influence the growth in smart technologies, which, in turn, will support the growth of the railway cybersecurity market.
By Security Type
Data Protection segment is projected as the most lucrative segments
Entering into strategic partnership with rail operators and service providers
Railway cybersecurity solution or service is used by rail operators, which are majorly government authorities or government-owned operating organizations functioning the overall rail activities within the nation with ease and high efficiency. The growing adoption of smart technologies in the railway is creating requirement for operational effective cyber security solutions and services. The commencement of such services or solutions is expected to be carried out through open contracts and agreements between service providers of rail transportation and developers or manufacturers of railway cybersecurity solution. These contracts mention a set of requirement that must be met in a certain timeframe. These long-term contracts and agreements are associated with long-term business opportunities with the rail operators. Market participants need to focus toward winning the contracts and agreements for new installations to gain a competitive advantage.
By Region
Europe would exhibit the highest CAGR of 8.1% during 2021-2030.
