The Maritime Safety Committee stated that all companies should include cyber risk management in the approved SMS according to the objectives and functional requirements of the ISM Code, and ensure that cyber risks are addressed in the SMS no later than the first annual verification of the company's Document of Compliance after 1 January 2021. Increased internet connectivity through the availability of affordable VSAT communications has led to greater risk of cyber incidents.
Existing PCs onboard are often outdated and networked with no added safety protocols — operating systems not updated, anti-virus not installed or not current. Onboard dedicated cyber-security procedures and adequate crew training are often lacking, with users not adhering to or equipped with cyber-security awareness.
This course addresses the lack of maritime cyber-security awareness amongst maritime personnel ashore and afloat.
