Maritime Cyber Security for Connected Vessels
Practical cyber risk management support for ship owners, managers and vessel operators—helping identify vulnerabilities, strengthen shipboard IT and OT resilience, and support compliance with IMO cyber risk management requirements.
For Ship Owners • Ship Managers • Superintendents • Vessel Operators
Cyber Risk Is Now an Operational Risk
Modern vessels depend on interconnected navigation, communication, satellite, IT and operational technology systems. A cyber incident can affect not only data, but also vessel operations, communications, safety and business continuity. Effective maritime cyber risk management therefore requires both technical awareness and practical shipboard procedures.

Crew Cyber Awareness & Preparedness
Strengthen onboard cyber awareness through practical guidance on passwords, phishing, removable media, personal devices, remote access and cyber incident response.
Shipboard IT & OT Security Review
Review network access, connected equipment, remote support pathways and separation between shipboard IT and operational technology to identify potential cyber exposure.
IMO Cyber Risk & Compliance Readiness
Support vessel operators in reviewing cyber risk management practices against IMO and ISM expectations and identifying areas that may require improvement.
Vessel Cyber Security Assessment
Review key cyber risks across shipboard IT, navigation, communication and operational systems to identify vulnerabilities and areas requiring attention.
Our approach focuses on practical vessel operations—helping ship owners and managers identify cyber risks, strengthen onboard practices and improve preparedness across connected shipboard systems.
How Marine Forte Can Support Vessel Cyber Security
What We Review Onboard
A practical vessel cyber review should consider the systems, connections and human practices that can introduce cyber risk into day-to-day shipboard operations.
