| contents | Hyperloop is among the most prominent future transportation systems. It involves novel technologies to allow traveling at a maximum speed of 1220km/h while guaranteeing sustainability. Due to the system's performance requirements and the critical infrastructure it represents, its safety and security must be carefully considered. In transportation systems, cyberattacks could lead to safety issues with catastrophic consequences for the population and the surrounding environment. To this day, no research investigated the cybersecurity issues of the Hyperloop technology.
In this paper, we provide the first analysis of the cybersecurity challenges of the interconnections between the different components of the Hyperloop ecosystem. We base our analysis on the currently available Hyperloop implementations, distilling those features that will likely be present in its final design. Moreover, we investigate possible infrastructure management approaches and their security concerns. Finally, we discuss countermeasures and future directions for the security of the Hyperloop design. |
