Abusing legacy railroad signaling systems
DAY 1
15:40-
16:20
Automatic Train Stop (ATS) systems are extensively deployed worldwide, utilizing various approaches tailored to regional and national technologies and integrating legacy systems established decades ago. In this session, we will explore the vulnerabilities within these systems, focusing on Japanese ATS and European counterparts, particularly the Spanish ASFA system, through a live demonstration. We will examine the potential for exploitation by analyzing the internal mechanisms and demonstrate how decoy devices, constructed with inexpensive components, can manipulate train operations by generating rogue signals.
