Overview

Cydome is the leading cybersecurity company whose products are specifically designed for the maritime industry. The company caters to fleets and offshore vessels with its bespoke, comprehensive cybersecurity suite that eliminates the shortcomings related to off-the-shelf products. With Cydome’s unique, proprietary technology, it allows vessels to have complete, automated, built-in cybersecurity checks and real-time monitoring for both IT and OT systems on vessels during their voyage at sea.

To conduct a thorough cybersecurity assessment and to understand how at risk your network is, businesses need to be able to calculate the effectiveness of any cybersecurity protocols and systems they have in place. This is one of the most challenging aspects for any IT team, and it simply isn’t enough to work on the basis that if there has been no cyber-attacks or breaches, then the cybersecurity defences are robust and effective. To do this, organisations need to be able to measure effectively their risk vulnerability via KPIs and metrics. Measurements for shipping companies, which are particularly vulnerable to cyber-attacks, should be done in a dual-layered approach: the organisation as a whole and the vessels/onboard assets.

Cydome’s solution assists IT managers to measure their cybersecurity effectiveness and how at risk they are of a cyberattack. With Cydome’s real- time monitoring capabilities and the continuous vulnerability scanning (attack simulation), all vulnerabilities are easily reported together with the mitigation recommendation. Furthermore, with unauthorised/3rd parties access detection, the company can demonstrate the frequency of access to internal networks and its monitoring.
