A Transportation Management Center (TMC) is the heart of many critical transportation systems. In order to make TMCs more resilient to cyber-attack incidents, operators should have an understanding of the nature of the threats, their own vulnerabilities, and their capability to respond. This article walks through the fundamentals of common cyber-attack processes and offers ideas on how to prepare and respond to an incident. As part of Executive Order 13636, Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity, the US Department of Transportation developed a Cyber Security Action Team charged with the implementation of the Department's Cyber Incident Response Capability Program. This team will leverage the extensive body of assessments and research done by Federal Highway Administration staff related to the security threats and vulnerabilities of the US' transportation systems. A Denial of Service attack attempts to overwhelm a network by flooding it with massive amounts of communication, typically against Internet facing application and components.
