About the Summit

The Maritime Cyber Resilience Summit is a global, operator-driven forum focused on one core challenge facing the maritime industry today: turning cyber signals into real operational resilience.

​

Hosted by the Maritime Transportation System Information Sharing and Analysis Center (MTS-ISAC), the Summit brings together leaders from across the Maritime Transportation System to address cyber risk where it actually matters—on ships, in ports and terminals, across energy flows, and throughout the global supply chain.

This is not a theoretical or vendor-led conference. It is designed for maritime professionals responsible for operations, security, risk, safety, and continuity, who need practical insight they can apply immediately.

​

What Makes This Summit Different

​

Maritime cyber incidents are rarely isolated technical events. They disrupt vessels, terminals, logistics networks, and commercial operations simultaneously. The Maritime Cyber Resilience Summit is built around that reality.

 

The Summit focuses on:

• Real-world threat intelligence and incident lessons

• Operator-led case studies from ships, ports, terminals, and energy operators

• Information sharing that drives faster, better decisions

• Resilience before, during, and after cyber disruption

 

Every session is grounded in operational relevance, not abstract frameworks or sales presentations.

​

Who Attends

 

The Summit convenes a curated audience from across the global maritime ecosystem, including:

• Shipping lines and vessel operators

• Ports and terminal operators

• Cruise and passenger operators

• Maritime and offshore energy organizations

• Critical vendors and service providers

• Class societies, insurers, and assurance bodies

• Government and regulatory stakeholders

 

This mix ensures discussions reflect the full lifecycle of maritime cyber risk, from prevention to response to recovery.

 

A Global Series

 

The Maritime Cyber Resilience Summit is a global series, with flagship events in:

• Europe / MENA

• The Americas

• Asia-Pacific

 

Each regional summit reflects local operational realities while contributing to a shared global dialogue on maritime resilience.

​

Our Focus

​

The Summit is built around practical, high-impact themes, including:

• Maritime threat landscape intelligence

• Operational resilience

• SOC of the Future for maritime operations

• Information sharing lessons learned

• Satellite communications and connectivity risk

• Incident response case studies

• Third-party and vendor ecosystem risk

• Policy and assurance expectations

• Emerging technologies, including AI in maritime

 

The goal is simple: leave attendees better prepared for the next disruption than when they arrived.

 

Why It Matters

 

Cyber risk in the maritime domain directly impacts:

• Safety of crews and passengers

• Continuity of port and terminal operations

• Energy security

• Global trade and economic stability

 

Resilience at the maritime gateway is no longer optional. It is a shared responsibility.

The Maritime Cyber Resilience Summit exists to help the industry meet that responsibility together.
