Cybersecurity for the Maritime Sector

The maritime industry transports 90% of the world’s trade. As port and shipping operations become smarter, more connected and autonomous, they also become attractive targets for cyber criminals. To prevent costly disruptions that impact the entire supply chain, shipping companies, port authorities and terminal operators must protect digitalized systems and equipment from cyberattack.

The Nozomi Networks platform is purpose-built for complex industrial environments and critical infrastructure, including the maritime sector. By automating asset inventory, calculating asset risk, prioritizing vulnerability management, detecting threats and anomalies, and assisting with incident response, it can accelerate compliance with maritime regulations and insurance mandates while increasing cyber and operational resilience.

The Connected Ship and Port

From satellite navigation systems to cargo handling equipment and container tracking systems, OT and IoT devices are crucial to optimizing routes and logistics across the global maritime industry. All must be secured.

Top Cyber Risks for Maritime Fleets and Ports 

Legacy OT Systems

Port systems like crane controllers, industrial sensors and safety instrument systems often run on insecure, decades-old technology with digital connectivity features bolted on.

Unmanaged IoT Devices

Satellite IoT devices for ship navigation and cargo tracking help optimize routes and logistics, but these and other ubiquitous IoT devices are often insecure by design.

Lack of Cybersecurity Awareness

Despite rapid digitalization, a lack of cybersecurity awareness and training persists among crew, port workers and contractors.

Complex Supply Chains

Maritime operations are tightly integrated across shipping lines, ports, logistics providers and equipment manufacturers. A vulnerability in a third-party system can affect everyone in the chain.

Support for Maritime Regulatory Compliance

The maritime sector is heavily regulated, and cybersecurity regulations are no exception. Below is a subset of important regulations and standards. By aligning closely with IEC 62443-3-3 and NIST CSF 2.0, the Nozomi Networks platform can help you meet these requirements.

IACS Unified Requirements E26 & E27

Two URs from the International Association of Classification Societies went into effect July 1, 2024: E26 – Cyber Resilience of Ships, which applies to entire ships, and E27 – Cyber Resilience of On-Board Systems and Equipment, which is intended to ensure security of third-party equipment.

USCG Final Rule: Cybersecurity in the MTS

Recently the United States Coast Guard shifted from encouragement to enforcement, culminating in baseline cybersecurity requirements to protect the MTS, including ports, from cyber threats. The regulations go into effect July 16, 2025.

IMO Guidance

The International Maritime Organization’s cybersecurity guidance encourages a risk-based approach to cybersecurity that is integrated into existing safety management systems, with the goal of supporting safe and secure shipping that is operationally resilient to cyber risks.
