As transportation agencies modernize with cloud-based intelligent infrastructure, securing operational technology (OT) is critical. Traditional security models are ineffective against modern threats, necessitating a Zero-Trust approach. Zscaler’s cloud-native security platform protects IoT/OT systems by reducing attack surfaces, enhancing visibility, and preventing breaches. Agencies face challenges like legacy technology, system complexity, and increased cyber threats. Implementing Zero Trust requires executive buy-in, incremental adoption, and adherence to security frameworks. By prioritizing cloud security, transportation agencies can safeguard critical infrastructure while enabling smarter, more resilient transit systems.
