Maritime cybersecurity

conference paper
In the past several decades cybersecurity gets increasingly more attention and impacts not only the end-users but also system administrators, system owners, and governments as well. Additionally, the frequency in which a cybersecurity incidents and/or newly discovered vulnerabilities reaches international media also increases. One could state that the area of cybersecurity has become a matured area in which not only a market exists for the protection of IT/OT systems, but in which there is also a highly skilled and developed market for the development of the next malware to infect and disturb systems. Recently, the Log4J vulnerability kept the cybersecurity community in its grip. Despite available Cybersecurity approaches to identify and evaluate risks, select security measures, and governance structures to keep in control (e.g. ISO-2700x), high impact incidents still occur. The majority of these cybersecurity frameworks are aimed at an (traditional) Information Technology (IT) environment, like typical business IT infrastructures and business users. Recent years the Operational Technology is catching up and awareness is raising to implement an adequate level of protection. (C) 2022, Institute of Marine Engineering Science & Technology.
