Methodology for threat identification & analysis
Threat identification and analysis Context Transport verticals Rail sector profile Historical attacks All transport sectors Focus on the rail sector Comparative study Targets: Countries, Sectors, Zones and assets Attacks: Attack types and effects, Vulnerability, health and safety Threat Actors profiles: APT, Ransomware Threat scenarios for CYRAIL New likely threat scenarios Overview of potential future attacks Advisory Threat taxonomy and ontology Threat taxonomy: Context, Threat Actor, Target , Attack, Impact Threat ontology
