Challenges

The Main Challenges in Meeting TSA Security Directives

Identifying and monitoring critical OT systems is complex

Rail operators must determine which systems fall under the TSA scope and maintain oversight across geographically distributed environments.

Monitoring expectations exceed traditional IT tooling

TSA directives require continuous monitoring and incident detection in OT environments that cannot tolerate intrusive security techniques.

Incident coordination must align with regulatory timelines

Operators must be prepared to detect, assess, and escalate incidents quickly while maintaining safe operations.
