Rail Station Video Management

This map shows the location of the project. For projects that do not have a specific location but affect a line/route or the entire system, either the affected lines/routes are shown, or an entire service area map is shown.

If you select the option to “toggle the benefit layer,” you will see an approximation of the area that will benefit from the project.

Each capital project is measured on 15 evaluation metrics to better understand its impact on the region. Learn more about the metrics and see a legend for all measures here.

Project Description

This project identifies needs for the complete upgrade and cyber security mitigation of CTA’s CCTV video management system across the rail system. Recent cyber security threat and vulnerability assessment (TVA) findings determined the existing video system has significant cyber vulnerabilities with the operating systems, is beyond useful life and is no longer supported. It is necessary to upgrade the video capture and storage infrastructure at over 200 rail facilities. The system upgrade will address cyber security vulnerabilities with unsupported and insecure Windows XP and Windows 7 operating systems.
