17. Security Concerns • “Man in the middle” attack (eavesdropping); WEP cracking  Exposed data • “Drive-by hacking” • Falsified data • Rogue access points • Unauthorized access • Exploit remote server vulnerabilities • Gain access to NJT corporate network

18. Security Solutions • Centrally managed, mutual authentication between mobile client and access point. • Server: RADIUS, LDAP • Authentication: EAP, LEAP • Improved WEP technology. • Per-session keys • Key expiration • Virtual private network (VPN) with encryption between mobile client and ground station on wired LAN. • VPN protocols: PPTP, L2TP, IPSec • Authentication: MS-CHAP v2, IKE • Encryption technologies: RC4, MPPE, AES • Firewall between access point and wired LAN.

32. What Can NJT Do With This Data? • Better Labor Utilization • Better Planning - Short and Long Term • Better Troubleshooting • Efficiency Improvements • More objective data analysis • Better Train Location Information Do More With Less Maximize Available Resources

33. Labor Utilization • Data Gathering: • Ridership surveys • HVAC surveys • Car & Train Location - System and Yards • Advance diagnostic information • Updates to Information Sign Databases • Remote Troubleshooting • Train Crew - DTN • Wayside Based Tech’s - RDS

34. Planning • Ridership Information from PLD: • Identify small changes in Ridership Trends • Size Train Correctly • Allow Crew to Appropriately Zone the Train • Introduction of Database Analyst Function

35. Troubleshooting • Real-time View of What is Happening on the Equipment • From the Wayside • From the Internet • Download or View of Health Status of Vehicle Subsystems
