The joys of discussing crewless ships and their cybersecurity woes! This document delves into the world of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS), where the absence of a crew doesn’t mean a lack of nightmares of cybersecurity, or legal tangles, and regulatory hurdles. The maritime industry lags a whopping 20 years behind other sectors in cybersecurity. Cyber penetration tests have shown that hacking into ship systems like the Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS) is as easy as pie—a rather unsettling thought when those systems control steering and ballast...

The Hilarious Saga of Ships Losing Their Voices: these gigantic vessels that rule the seas can’t even keep track of themselves without our help. When their beloved AIS system fails, they’re rendered blind, deaf and dumb — a cruel joke on their supposed maritime prowess. This document, in its grand ambition, seeks to dissect the marvel that is maritime open-source intelligence (maritime OSINT). Real-world case studies will be presented with the gravitas of a Shakespearean tragedy, illustrating the practical applications and undeniable benefits of maritime OSINT in various security scenarios...
