The complexity of onboard train systems has steadily increased, which makes secure, reliable, and resilient data communications critical for railway safety. Every day, millions depend on trains to run on schedule, travel safely, and keep personal data protected. Achieving this level of reliability requires thousands of systems to work in sync.
Westermo has been a leader in onboard train technology for decades. The Viper product line has been deployed in various rail systems worldwide, and its flexibility enables smooth development and expansion as operational demands grow.
Cybersecurity has become a key priority in the rail industry due to the rise of internet access demands during transit. Data breaches and hacking incidents are now frequent, leading to heightened customer expectations for safety and data security. Beyond passenger safety, the integrity of onboard systems must also remain uncompromised.
The Viper-3000 series preserves earlier Viper models' form, fit, and function. Its standout feature is its identical footprint, allowing for seamless upgrade progress and replacements without any need to modify existing setups. The Viper’s compact and durable design remains one of the most efficient solutions in the market, ensuring smooth system transitions.
Security is central to Westermo’s product design philosophy. The Viper-3000 series, backed by the ongoing IEC 62443-4-2 SL2 certification, is one of the most secure offerings available today. This certification ensures transparency across the supply chain, promoting trust and collaboration at every stage. The Viper family also complies with EN 50155, EN 50121-3-2, and EN 50121-4 standards.
The Viper-3000 series operates on WeOS 5, Westermo’s latest-generation operating system. WeOS 5 includes key features such as extended logging, enhanced firewalls, and Secure Boot functionality. Secure Boot ensures only authorized firmware is loaded, safeguarding devices from malicious attacks that could compromise entire systems.
By combining a sleek design, ease of use, and advanced cybersecurity measures, the Viper-3000 series offers endless possibilities for customization and ensures safety for all on-board passengers.
“The Viper family has been successfully implemented on numerous on-board systems worldwide, demonstrating its reliability and effectiveness. As systems evolve, the Viper family facilitates seamless development and growth. In an era where cybersecurity is paramount, the Viper 3000 series stands out as a robust and secure solution, ensuring the safety and integrity of customer data.”
