Maritime Cyber Security

Written by Richard Brinson | Sep 24, 2018 10:45:30 AM

Vessels (from super-yachts to tankers), ports and marinas are an attractive target and the threats are significant; attacks on control systems, failure of critical systems, navigation interference, covert surveillance, blocking of communications, ransom attacks, theft of business data and exposure of private information.
