Faced with the digitalization as well as the automation of the navy in Europe, this sector is increasingly facing significant risks of cyber-attacks that could compromise various data and directly impact the proper functioning of maritime infrastructures (ports, ships, oil platforms, beacons, etc…).
In this issue, we will focus on the European maritime cybersecurity market and its applications in the markets targeted by Surfeo.
« Ships and other vessels may appear to be unusual targets for cyber-attacks. But with their increasing use of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and satellite communications, pirates have a new playground that is ripe for attack.
The majority of computer systems affected during these attacks are:
-
– Vessel-integrated navigation systems (VINS)
-
– Global Positioning Systems (GPS)
-
– Satellite communications
-
– Automatic Identification Systems (AIS)
-
– Radar systems and electronic charts
