Superyacht Cyber Security

Over many years, CND has been providing cyber security to superyachts. In our experience, we have learnt that they are unlike any other maritime vessel.  The priorities and protocols onboard are vastly different and must be respected. The usual cyber rules don't necessarily apply.

Our Superyacht Cyber Security Team, formed of former superyacht seafarers with experience of both private and charter vessels, alongside our cyber security specialists, it is this Team who deliver our service to you, in a language that you understand, providing a stressless journey towards cyber compliance and more.

Maritime Cyber Risk/Security Assessment

Not sure how secure your yacht really is? Our Cyber Risk/Security Assessment maps all onboard systems, highlights what matters most, and uncovers potential cyber threats. We then provide practical steps to reduce risk and improve resilience, so you can sail with confidence, knowing your vessel is protected against evolving digital dangers.

Cyber Security Plans & Policies

Cyber Security Plans & Policies define how your vessel and crew manage cyber risk with precision. We create tailored frameworks that outline responsibilities, procedures, and compliance with maritime standards.
