Operationalising Cyber Resilience: Governance, Assurance, and Collaboration Across the Rail Ecosystem

Join us for the 12th Annual Rail Cybersecurity Conference, taking place 10–11 March 2026 in London, as the rail community continues to move from policy to practical implementation of cyber resilience.

Having evolved over more than a decade of collaboration across the UK and European rail ecosystem, the conference attracts participants from rail and infrastructure organisations around the world, reflecting the growing international alignment around cybersecurity and safety standards.

The programme explores how governance frameworks, safety assurance, and supply-chain collaboration can be unified under evolving standards such as NIS 2, IEC 62443, TS 50701, and the Cyber Resilience Act. Through executive panels, technical briefings, workshops, and roundtable discussions, participants will examine how rail organisations are embedding cybersecurity into procurement, operations, and engineering — from SOC modernisation and OT threat detection to cross-functional safety and security case integration.

Now in its 12th year, the Rail Cybersecurity Conference remains a trusted meeting point for those shaping the future of secure and resilient rail infrastructure, recognised for its practical focus and depth of discussion.
