Abstract:
TSA intends to publish Security Directives (SD), which will be mandatory, and Information Circular (IC), which will be non-mandatory recommendations, to various surface transportation mode operators to address the ongoing cybersecurity threat using a risk-based approach to transportation security. The SDs would only apply to “Higher Risk” Railroads and Rail Transit operations and the IC would apply to lower-risk operations to enhance the surface transportation integrated system to include transit bus operations and over-the-road bus (OTRB) owner/operators.
Emergency Justfication:
To protect against escalating cybersecurity threats, TSA intends to publish a Security Directive (SD) which will be mandatory, titled SD 1580/1582-2022-01 Rail Cybersecurity Mitigation Actions, Contingency Planning, and Testing. The purpose of this SD will be to reduce the vulnerability of critical railroad operations and facilities to cybersecurity threats through implementation of layered cybersecurity measures that provide defense-in-depth. The SD 1580/1582-2022-01 would apply to Owner/Operators of freight and passenger railroads, to include the “Higher Risk” Freight railroads identified in 49 CFR 1580.101 and additional TSA-designated freight and passenger railroads. As this SD requires new information to be submitted to TSA, TSA is requesting emergency approval for a revision of OMB Control Number 1652-0074, Cybersecurity Measures for Surface Modes. TSA would continue to collect information under this Information Collection Request (ICR) for the previously issued SD-1580-21-01 , SD -1582-21-01 and IC 2021-01 issued on December 31, 2021, which remain in effect.
