This paper presents the approaches related to the digital transformation in the railway sector. Cyber security is a priority for the proper functioning of government or industrial control systems. Safety is a central point of the activities of the railway sector, being in the total responsibility of the companies, infrastructures and enterprises in the sector, while the security assurance is shared by them with the authorities. The most significant challenges facing this sector is cybersecurity.

They have implemented and interconnected information systems that combine IT, operational technology and the Internet of Things (IoT) in the management and control systems of trains, metro trains and trams, railway signaling systems and railway operations control centers.
