In line with the guidelines set out by the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the new laboratory features hardware and software systems developed to help shipowners and operators combat the maritime industry\u2019s growing cyber security risks. Customers are now being invited for virtual demonstrations of the laboratory\u2019s systems and capabilities.<\/p>\n
With the rise of smarter, more connected systems, IMO urges all shipping companies to demonstrate that cyber threats have been part of every vessel\u2019s Safety Management Systems (SMS) risk assessment from 2021 onwards.
