FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin A new analysis of more than a dozen marine equipment cyber risk assessments has found that 94% of the systems examined were rated at a level where cyber risk treatment should be considered or is required, with about 60% classified as requiring treatment. The findings, published by cybersecurity company CYTUR in its September 2026 Threat Brief, highlight the limitations of relying on Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) alone to assess the cyber risk of shipboard equipment. CYTUR said the assessments showed that actual risk was shaped by a combination of vulnerabilities, network exposure, connectivity and the potential operational impact of a compromise.
