Part 1 Awareness

In the modern world, maritime cyber security is of critical importance as the maritime industry increasingly relies on interconnected digital technologies and systems. Cyber attacks on ships, ports, and other maritime infrastructure can disrupt trade, endanger lives, and cause significant financial losses. The diversity of systems and technologies used in the maritime industry, combined with the human element, makes it vulnerable to cyber threats. Effective maritime cyber security measures are necessary to prevent cyber incidents and minimize their impact when they occur. Ultimately, maritime cyber security is essential for the safety, security, and economic well-being of the entire maritime sector, as well as for the global economy and international trade.
