FRAMEWORK

NIST 2.0 — full cyber resilience across IT and OT

Gap & compliance assessment

Find the gaps before they become exposure

Cyber criminals often exploit weaknesses that are already present in IT and OT environments. A gap and compliance assessment helps identify security control deficiencies, documentation gaps and areas where yacht systems may not be aligned with evolving industry and data security standards.

60%

of successful breaches begin with unaddressed vulnerabilities.

Security architecture reviewed across IT and OT environments, with priority actions to reduce exposure and support compliance readiness.

Penetration testing

See how your systems would withstand a real attack

Penetration testing simulates real-world cyber-attack scenarios to reveal weak points across IT and OT systems. It helps identify exposed data paths, access weaknesses and organisational vulnerabilities before attackers can take advantage of them.

Real-world testing to reveal exploitable weaknesses before they can be used against you.

Testing can include penetration testing, red teaming and purple teaming, with clear remediation guidance to improve cyber resilience.

Vulnerability assessments

Detect weaknesses before they become incidents

24h

Organisations that detect threats within 24 hours are 40% less likely to experience a major security incident.

Real-time visibility into the threat landscape, with alerts and prioritisation to help yacht teams act before risks escalate.

Privileged access management

Limit access before credentials become a risk

Nearly three-quarters of cyber breaches come from compromised credentials. Privileged Access Management helps restrict access to essential users only, reducing the risk of unauthorised activity across IT and OT environments if an account is compromised.

75%

of cyber breaches come from compromised credentials.

Privileged user sessions are continuously monitored to detect unusual activity and block unauthorised access to IT, OT systems and sensitive data.

Secure remote access

Enable remote access without opening new risks

Secure Remote Access helps employees, yacht teams and third-party vendors connect to IT and OT systems safely, regardless of device or location. Encrypted access supports operational flexibility while helping prevent data breaches and maintain compliance.

Encrypted access for secure connection to IT and OT systems.

Remote access can support onboard teams, shore-side users and approved third parties without compromising the security of critical systems.

Unified threat management

A single managed approach helps protect critical systems while supporting uninterrupted network performance and simpler security management.

Industry specific threat feed

Stay ahead of threats targeting your environment

Not all industries face the same cyber risks. Industry-specific threat intelligence provides actionable insight tailored to maritime and yachting environments, helping identify relevant threats early and strengthen protection before issues escalate.

Real-time monitoring of emerging sector-specific threats.

Threat intelligence helps detect risks linked to high-value assets, private data, onboard systems and evolving attack methods.

Phishing & awareness programme

Strengthen the human line of defence

With many cyber-attacks starting through phishing emails, awareness training helps staff recognise suspicious messages and reduce the risk of hackers gaining access to critical IT and operational systems.

90%

of cyber-attacks start with a phishing email.

Training improves phishing recognition and helps reduce the risk of staff being exploited by attackers.

Data loss prevention

Keep confidential data protected

Data Loss Prevention helps protect customer data, intellectual property and other confidential information from accidental leaks, malicious activity or unauthorised transfer. It supports stronger data protection and regulatory compliance.

€6bn

in GDPR-related fines have been imposed since GDPR came into effect.

Data Loss Prevention tools help reduce the risk of data leaks while supporting compliance with data protection requirements.

Security Operations Centre

Detect and respond before threats escalate

The Security Operations Centre provides 24/7 monitoring across IT and OT infrastructure, alerting teams to potential threats and providing real-time updates on security incidents. This helps speed up detection and response, supporting containment before attacks can escalate.

24/7

cyber monitoring across IT and OT environments.

Continuous SOC monitoring helps detect threats, provide timely alerts and support faster response when suspicious activity is identified.

Network detection & response

Find suspicious activity that traditional tools may miss

Network Detection & Response helps identify suspicious activity, unknown devices and threats that may already be inside IT or OT networks. It provides visibility beyond traditional firewalls and anti-virus tools, helping detect risks before they cause damage.

Real-time visibility into connected IT and OT systems.

Continuous monitoring helps detect suspicious network activity, improve response times and strengthen protection across the full infrastructure.

Endpoint detection & response for IT

Secure the devices attackers often target first

Endpoint Detection & Response monitors and protects IT endpoints such as laptops, desktops and servers. It provides real-time monitoring, automated alerts and response support to help neutralise threats before they spread.

90%+

of cyber-attacks target endpoint systems.

AI-driven monitoring helps protect endpoints, including devices operating remotely or in low-bandwidth environments.

Threat hunting

Look deeper for risks that have not triggered alerts 

Threat hunting proactively searches for advanced threats, insider risks and hidden breaches that may not be detected by traditional defences. It helps uncover security gaps before they can be exploited.

Proactive search for hidden or advanced threats.

Threat hunting helps reduce the time attackers can remain unnoticed inside a network and improves cyber resilience by identifying hidden risks.

Endpoint security for OT

Defend OT endpoints and legacy system

Endpoint Security for OT helps detect and defend operational technology endpoints, including legacy devices and control systems. It supports protection against malware, rogue applications, suspicious user activity and unauthorised USB devices.

68%+

of successful OT breaches originate from compromised endpoints.

Protection for OT endpoints helps secure legacy systems and operational environments where traditional IT security may not be enough.

Deception honeypot solution

Use decoy systems to reveal active threats

A deception honeypot solution uses decoy systems to alert teams when attackers interact with them. This provides early warning and useful intelligence before critical IT or OT systems are affected.

Early warning when attackers interact with decoy environments.

Decoy systems help reduce false alarms by triggering alerts only when suspicious activity is taking place.

Threat exposure monitoring

See potential weaknesses before attackers do

Threat Exposure Monitoring maps the attack surface and continuously searches for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations and emerging risks created by changes in IT infrastructure.

83%

of cyberattacks stem from exposed assets beyond traditional security perimeters.

Continuous monitoring provides real-time alerts and actionable insights to help protect exposed infrastructure.

Cyber threat intelligence

Make faster decisions with better threat insight

Cyber Threat Intelligence provides real-time information and alerts across the attack surface, helping identify vulnerabilities early and address security gaps before they become serious.
