This 4-hour course will provide certification for maritime personnel serving onboard.
This course provides captains and crews with the fundamental concepts and techniques necessary to successfully prepare for and respond to cyber threats in the maritime domain. Software, hardware, and people are all possible attack vectors onboard vessels, and a foundational understanding of how to address them is essential to maintaining security and privacy of owners, guests, and crew members.
Students will develop comprehension and perspective on the cyber threats prevalent in the maritime industry and society writ large. We will explore impact of cyber incidents and how to mitigate potential threats with sound preventative measures and cybersecurity resources. Special consideration will be given to distinguishing sensitive information and critical systems to ensure captains and crews can apply appropriate protections in accordance with global privacy and data regulations.
(4) maintain a vessel security policy.
Students successfully completing the course will receive VISP certification from Resolvn, Inc. (www.resolvn.com) – a leading cybersecurity company.
The assessment is based on the BIMCO guidelines as they apply to a basic user; it will include 30 questions to be completed during the last hour of the course. The questions will be multiple choice and delivered on-site.
