Case Study: Global Shipping Company secures remote access for its fleet with SSH.COM PrivX OT

A Marine Vessel Operator Secures Remote Access for Diagnostics, Maintenance and IoT Data Collection for 1000s of ships

The global shipping company, operating a fleet of over 1000 ships, needed to securely perform remote diagnostics and maintenance without costly port visits. After a traditional VPN solution proved to have significant security and operational limitations, they turned to SSH.COM for a solution using their PrivX OT product.

SSH.COM implemented PrivX OT to provide secure, just-in-time access, replacing the always-on VPN. The solution integrated with the existing cloud and satellite infrastructure, offering role-based access, centralized credential management, and full session auditing. This allowed the global shipping company to perform remote maintenance securely from any location, ensuring all connections were verified and tracked according to Zero Trust principles, while the scalable cloud deployment supported their expanding fleet.
