Steven Jones, founder of the Seafarers Happiness Index, argues that although the energy transition will cause huge changes to the industry, right now it just seems to be causing confusion, worry, and irritation.

The threats posed by maritime cyber security incidents are increasing, and the shipping industry is taking action to mitigate the risks while minimising the impact. The true extent of shipping’s cyber vulnerabilities remains uncertain and the implications are growing, as is the concern of the effect of cyber security on the industry, writes Mr. Steven Jones FRSA.
