- Cyber security is an increasingly important topic for the maritime and offshore industries due to rapid digital transformation and with that comes new threats and regulatory requirements.
Optimization of operations remains a critical focus, and those who can utilize new technologies and digital solutions will have the upper hand. Cyber security is a critical risk area, as ship operation is largely dependent on the effectiveness of software-based systems for operations.
With the upcoming requirements from IMO, ship owners and managers have also to incorporate cyber risk management into their Safety Management System (SMS) until 1 January 2021.
Overview of increasingly important drivers for cyber security in maritime industry:
• New technology, more automation and digitalization are enabling our industry to be more efficient. At the same time, cyber security needs to be in place in order to handle the safety considerations and risks this new technology brings with it, as well as to ensure that we keep vessel operation and crew & passengers safe.
• An increase in cyber incidents is affecting shipping and offshore. Along with the higher number of integrated vessels comes new threats which can remotely attack your vessels and potentially gain access to or impact the vessel’s control systems.
• Regulations and laws are being introduced that require owners, operators and managers to consider cyber risks, such as the IMO Guidelines on Maritime Cyber Risk Management.
• Commercial cyber requirements and risks, such as TMSA 3 and lack of insurance coverage, can impact the probability of getting a charter and may lead to significant financial risk.
