Benefits Statement

To safeguard Georgia’s expansive transportation network, Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is deploying advanced firewalled routers statewide, protecting 8,000+ connected devices from growing cybersecurity threats. By integrating secure edge devices into traffic systems, GDOT reduces the risk of cyberattacks that could disrupt safety-critical operations like signals and ramp meters. Standardized installation procedures and cross-team coordination streamline deployment, saving time and ensuring consistent configurations. This proactive approach protects both infrastructure and public safety, while reducing future costs linked to system breaches, downtime, and emergency responses.
