Kapsch CarrierCom announced its participation in the European rail joint technology initiative SHIFT²RAIL. Kapsch CarrierCom will contribute its expertise to SHIFT²RAIL’s Innovation Program 2 (IP2) which is focused on Advanced Traffic Management & Control Systems.
Within the IP2, Kapsch will carry out the analysis, specification and implementation of a prototype for an emergency call application for the future railway communication system. The research project is supplemented by innovative approaches which will reduce costs as well as the complexities of system testing and system validation. Kapsch will focus on cyber security with the definition of new processes and structures for the detection and prevention of attacks on railway IT and communication systems.
The EU initiative is focused on research and innovation to accelerate the development of new technologies, products and solutions for railways. A major goal of the European rail joint technology initiative is to raise the competitiveness of European solutions and products.
