System monitoring with the Data Capture Unit in the rail environment
In the age of digitalisation, critical infrastructures and systems are becoming a target of interest for potential attacks. In order to be able to effectively detect and defend against cyber threats, it must be possible to extract targeted information from IT/OT networks for processing in other systems. Any anomalies in the data traffic can be identified by a downstream analysis, thus allowing any potential attacks to be picked up. This data must be tapped without having an impact on the system, something that can be achieved using a Siemens data capture unit (DCU)....
