Cervello
Cervello is an Israeli rail cybersecurity company focused on protecting railway OT and signaling environments from cyber threats.
Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
Cervello builds cybersecurity capabilities tailored to rail environments, where safety-critical operations and specialized OT protocols require controls beyond traditional IT security tooling. The company focuses on visibility, threat detection, and operationally safe security workflows for railway operators and infrastructure owners.
The rail-cyber segment is narrower than broad OT cybersecurity, but strategic because rail systems are national critical infrastructure and frequent modernization targets. Product value depends on protocol depth, deployment safety in fragile control environments, and integration with existing SOC and incident-response processes.
Dual-use relevance is credible: resilient rail operations matter for both civilian transport and defense logistics. A rail-focused cyber capability can support continuity of national mobility corridors during crisis or hybrid threat scenarios.
Dual-Use Assessment
Railway OT cybersecurity has direct dual-use relevance for protecting both civilian transportation systems and defense logistics corridors.
