Abstract

The fast pace of scientific and technological progress in terms of informatisation and digitalisation of society entails the risk of increasing cyber threats, which pose a serious problem for organisations, as the pace of development of digital and information technologies significantly outstrips the pace of development of tools to protect them. The article describes the relevance of cyber security issues in the transport sector, provides a conceptual framework of cyber security and the main types of cyber attacks. The statistics of cyber threats in transport in 2023 compared to 2022 is studied.  The cyber environment and the main elements of its defence are considered. A procedure for managing cyber security in a transport organisation has been developed, which is based on a process approach to cyber security management, including a block for managing the audit of the current state of the defence system in the organisation and a block with a sequence of actions in the event of a cyber attack. The proposed cyber security management procedure allows not only to prevent potential cyber attacks, but also to audit the current state of cyber defence and form directions for its improvement, taking into account changing threats and dynamically developing technologies.  

Purpose. To study the issues of cybersecurity management in a transport organization in conditions of increasing risks of cyber threats.

Methodology. The article uses methods of systems theory, system analysis and synthesis, analytical and statistical methods.

Results. The statistics of cyber threats in the transport sector is studied. A procedure for managing cyber security in a transport organisation is proposed, which makes it possible to manage the assessment of the current state of the organisation's protection system and regulates the procedure for actions in the event of a cyber attack.

Practical implications. The obtained research results may be in demand in the practice of cyber security management in a transport organisation.
