Certified Supplier registry

The IMCSO maintains a register of approved maritime cyber resource suppliers as well as individuals’ certifications within those supplier companies. This to ensure that the marketplace can easily identify suitably qualified cyber providers.

IMCSO Report Standardization

The IMCSO drives the standardization of report output such that the relevant consumers of this information, including port authorities and insurance companies, will have the ambiguity of interpretation removed allowing them to reduce time and overheads when considering the cyber risk a vessel presents.

Centralized Cyber Risk Registry

The IMCSO maintains a database of results from ships that relevant parties may access the cyber risk profile of any given vessel quickly and cost effectively without the need for the risky transfer of security reports via email or otherwise.

This data will also be used to inform the IMO, ship builders and management companies of trends in cyber security aboard.

“The independent validation of cybersecurity professionals offered by the IMCSO will help our members to select cybersecurity testers in a much more efficient way, ensuring they allow personnel onboard with the requisite experience.

It will make it much easier to comply with the IMO mandate and will prove an invaluable resource.” - Ms Caroline Yang, President, Singapore Shipping Association (SSA)
