UK: cyber security code of practice for ships

The United Kingdom’s Department of Transport has launched a cyber security code of practice for ships. This initiative provides information on implementing and maintaining good cyber security practices on maritime vessels. It links to a past initiative, the cyber security for ports and port systems code of practice, launched on August 2016. The guidance will be complementing the work being done by the IMO to raise awareness of cyber threats and vulnerabilities. More information on these initiatives is available here.
