IMO-University of Plymouth symposium on Maritime cyber security and resilience
The International Maritime Organization (imo) and the University of Plymouth’s Cyber-SHIP Lab are jointly organizing a Symposium on “Maritime cyber security and resilience”. The Symposium will share the latest international maritime cyber risk evaluation and mitigation research, and explore how governments, industry, researchers, and NGOs can collaborate to build cyber resilience in the international maritime supply chain.
Industry and academic expert speakers will address topics across ship, port, and maritime supply chain cyber security, including cyber security and safety of assets and people, new technologies, policy development and mariner training.
