Secure Rail 2018 returns to Orlando in April 2018. This exclusive conference features industry experts discussing the latest risks and threats to physical and cyber security, how to anticipate future threats, and other topics including managing and protecting employees, passengers and assets. This event is an opportunity to network with your peers and preview the latest products, technologies and services designed to protect you from man-made threats and dangers.

"You cannot deny the increasing importance of security in the rail industry," says Amy Brown, Director of Education & Conferencing for Secure Rail. "Prevention and information continue to be the most effective tools we have, and how we communicate and respond to crisis situations is changing. Right now, we are proactively taking new measures on potential threats - both virtual and physical. Secure Rail is designed to provide the tools and assurance to do accomplish those goals."

Conference sessions will feature strategies and insights from industry experts on how to manage employees, passengers, technology and assets, and protect them from man-made threats and dangers.

In addition to 20+ in-depth conference sessions, the event offers plentiful networking opportunities and a chance for members of freight, transit and commuter rail communities to convene on gold standards, best practices, trends and issues affecting the security of railroad.
