Inmarsat’s SpaceBytes published a video focusing on Cyber Security. Inmarsat’s Analyst James Weston who has an insight in cyber crimes comments that the front line of a cyber attack is behind a screen not on the street; you can’t see when or where it’s coming from.
Mainly a Cyber Security Analyst job varies from advising colleagues to data loss mitigation.
Moreover, cyber security combines also safety to the critical functions and the data of aviation, maritime and land-based customers.
Cyber Security Analysts have tools in order to get an insight on the attack and investigate further, or lock the attacked system down.
Moreover, according to a recent Cyber Security awareness survey of Alert Online among small and medium businesses, in 2018, more than half (52%) small businesses were attacked by cyber criminals.
Concluding, there have been flare-ups in the maritime cyber security era over the last two years, when major cyber incidents begun striking industry’s operations. Theft of credentials is said to have increased significantly, with phishing and malware being the most popular cyber threats.
