Evaluation of a transportation system based on electric drive from cybersafety point of view

The article presents threats related to broadly understood cybersecurity, encountered in modern public transport, especially in cases of increasingly introduced Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Experience to date has shown strong links between the technical sphere and IT system of public transport, ensuring its protection against unwanted externa l interference from people (or organizations) trying to disrupt its functioning. The following - inter alia - are of a key importance: the system of existing bus network as well as organization of bus work on routes (schedule) and its IT links, monitoring and system protection against external interference. The main goal of cybersecurity in public transport is to increase the level of cybersecurity in city agglomeration by increasing the availability of hardware and IT tools, included in intelligent transport systems, protecting safety and reliability of operation of public transport.
