This project presents TrainSec, a simulation framework that facilitates security modeling and evaluation in networks of Communication-Based Train Control (CBTC) systems. The framework simulates components and communications in CBTC networks according to IEEE 1474.1, the standard for CBTC performance and functional requirements.
A scientific publication is available for TrainSec. If you find it useful in your research work, please consider citing as follows:
