Abstract [sv]

Cyberrisk utgör ett hot mot teknologier, data och individers och organisationers integritet. Svårigheten för organisationer i att skydda sig och reducera hoten har ökat som en följd av att cyberbrottslingar har tillgång till bättre metoder och verktyg för datastöld och systeminfiltration. Detta är i synnerhet sant vad gäller fleragentsystem där agenterna är digitalt sammanlänkade via Internet. Denna skrift rapporterar, med fokus på fleragentsystem, de vanligaste och mest fundamentala cyberhoten samt presenterar luckor och tillkortakommanden i utbudet av verktyg syftande till att reducera cyberhoten. Trafikverket och dess verksamhet ingår i fleragentssystem. Skriften redogör för de mest samtida problemen och möjligheterna relevanta för transportområdet. Vidare så pekar den ut framtida forskningsbehov syftande till att ge vägledning till dem som leder cyberförsvaret i transportområdet. Skriftens slutsatser vilar på en systematisk litteraturgenomgång av vetenskapliga arbeten.

Abstract [en]

Cyber risks are considered as one of the main challenges that harm technology, data, and privacy of individuals and organizations. While cyber criminals tend to use improved methods and tools to steal data or hack into systems, the ability of organizations to mitigate such risks tend to become more difficult. Especially when the organization and various other agents operate in a multi-agent environment that is often connected to the internet. This report highlights some of the most common and fundamental cyber threats and cyber security gaps or vulnerabilities which might be found in risk mitigation tools that are used for cyber defense in a multi-agent environment. The Swedish Transport Administration for example operates in such an environment. The study exhibits latest challenges and opportunities in the transport arena while focusing on unique and specific disciplines related to the Swedish Transport Sector. It suggests future applicative research studies that will yield recommendations to cyber defense managers in the transport sector whose one of the major tasks is to perform mitigation of cyber risks. The study employed a structured literature review methodology drawing on existing scientific scholarship to prepare the report.
