We are Cervello

A team of creative and skilled problem-solvers with a shared desire to solve real-world problems.

Our mission

To provide rail organizations the confidence and peace of mind to focus on their main business while delivering safe and reliable transport.

Our story – When we embarked on our journey, we discovered a major security gap in one of the most obvious places, trains. Every day, our friends and family ride the train to work, home, and school, not knowing that they are not fully protected against today’s cybersecurity threats. It became our mission to close this critical safety gap affecting millions of people on a daily basis. We had the skills and determination to make it fast, easy, and cost-effective for rail organizations to secure their infrastructure and systems. Since 2019, Cervello has succeeded in improving the lives of millions of people by securing rail-critical operations for the world’s biggest rail organizations.
