IMO presented the latest developments on maritime security at the 16th Caribbean Shipping Executives Conference
All stakeholders should use existing safety and security management practices to implement the maritime cyber risk management recommendations agreed by IMO. This was a key message from IMO’s Javier Yasnikouski, Head of Maritime Security, IMO, presented the latest developments on maritime security at the 16th Caribbean Shipping Executives Conference, Curaçao (8-9 May).
IMO says the conference participants, from a range of maritime areas, engaged in group exercises to discuss possible cyber security scenarios that could affect shipping-related activities and organizations, as well as the financial consequences of such actions. They acknowledged the IMO cyber risk recommendations and recognized the critical importance of cyber security for all maritime stakeholders and the need to address cyber security, as an urgent matter, within their own organizations.
