Case Study: a maritime research vessel fleet strengthens cyber resilience with NCC Group's multi-vessel OT security review

Maritime establishes fleet-wide cyber security baseline with NCC Group across multi-vessel OT fleet

The customer, a maritime geoservices company operating a research vessel fleet, faced the challenge of securing a multi-vessel operational technology fleet with disparate systems and a lack of standardized security. NCC Group was engaged to perform a cyber security review based on the NIST Cybersecurity Framework to identify vulnerabilities across their diverse and aging technologies.

NCC Group delivered a series of remote workshops to create vessel asset registers, conduct NIST CSF gap assessments, and perform threat-to-system mapping. The solution provided the client with a comprehensive risk assessment report, establishing a security baseline and a process for continuous improvement. NCC Group's work enabled the maritime company to understand its cybersecurity posture and prioritize improvements across the entire fleet.
