‘Be Cyber Aware at Sea’ is a global maritime and offshore industry initiative to raise awareness of the increasing maritime cyber threats to international shipping, ports and offshore operations. More than 90% of world trade including the global transportation of energy is conducted by sea and our reliance on technology continues to increase, we are now very much immersed in the digital era.
Ships and offshore platforms are becoming more sophisticated and in many cases crews are getting smaller. The cyber threat at sea poses significant security, safety and financial risks to shipping and offshore operations. Cyber security should be considered a board level priority issue in order to tackle this emerging threat at sea.
Don’t miss 2017 SMART4SEA Conference & Awards on January 31st, where Jordan Wylie, Communications Officer, Be Cyber Aware at Sea Campaign will speak about the initiative. For more information or to show your support, please visit www.becyberawareatsea.com
