Maritime cybersecurity is of paramount importance for the safe movement of persons and goods that underpin the global economy. Unfortunately, the increasing digitalization and automation and the efforts to find the right trade-off between security and usability, introduce new cybersecurity risks. This balance can be challenging to maintain in the face of rapidly changing cybersecurity challenges in the maritime industry.

During the event we will give a status of where the industry is heading, and dive deep into the latest development of the IMO guidelines by looking at the complex aspects of on maritime cyber risk management. The event will highlight the significance of protecting critical infrastructure and provide insights into the best practices when addressing key vulnerabilities and strategies to protect critical maritime infrastructure.
