It includes in-depth analysis of high-profile case studies, such as the Maersk ransomware attack, while examining key cyber threats like malware, GPS jamming, and insider threats. The session will highlight the latest IMO regulations, the role of IoT in smart ports, and the growing importance of crew cyber awareness training. Attendees will gain valuable insights into best practices for risk management, incident response, and explore emerging trends in maritime cybersecurity, such as the integration of AI and blockchain for enhancing security across global supply chains.
