The Road to Zero: Scaling Safety Through Intelligent Infrastructure

Urban roadways are facing unprecedented complexity, forcing Departments of Transportation to balance the need for advanced V2X technology with the absolute requirement for rigorous cybersecurity.
The modern roadway is at a breaking point. As urban density increases, so does the complexity of managing traffic, protecting vulnerable road users, and maintaining aging infrastructure. For Departments of Transportation (DOTs), the challenge is twofold: they must modernize their systems to support Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) technology that can aid in traffic efficiency and safety, but they must do so without compromising the security of critical traffic controls, all with limited funding. When data is siloed or insecure, the idea of a “connected city” remains just that—an idea. Pedestrians and road workers depend on split-second awareness, and DOTs require a foundational layer…
