Korean Register( KR) has actually authorized Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) to perform a joint research study on “Ship Cyber Security Network Construction and Design Safety Evaluation” at the Marine Engineering Research Center of SHI.
Under the MOU, both companies have actually consented to review the building and also style security of cyber protection networks relevant to brand-new ships. In enhancement, they will collectively examine modern technologies that can reply to cyber hazards dealt with by ships, by identifying ship cyber protection susceptabilities making use of the cyber protection examination beds constructed by SHI.
SHI is identified for its technical expertise as an outcome of its cyber protection qualifications obtained from significant delivery business based upon its exclusive clever ship service, SVESSEL. It is anticipated that by incorporating KR’s world-recognized category ability and also the clever ship innovation of Samsung Heavy Industries, the resulting harmonies will certainly be exceptionally advantageous to the delivery sector progressing.

Cybersecurity danger monitoring will certainly be considerably enhanced in 2021 when the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) Maritime Safety Committee’s resolution “Cyber Risk Management in Safety Management System (MSC.428 (98))” enters impact. In the lead up to this day, KR and also SHI will certainly collaborate to improve and also sustain the application and also confirmation of ship cyber protection policies.
“Through this partnership and joint research with Samsung Heavy Industries, we will strengthen our ship cybersecurity certification and our technical service capabilities. KR will also continue to increase its cybersecurity technology leadership in the global maritime market using world-class construction technology through our cooperation and close working with shipyards,” claimed Kim Dae- heon, head of KR’s Digital Technology Center.
Shim Yong- rae, head of the Shipbuilding and also Marine Research Institute of SHI, included: “We expect to considerably increase the security capabilities of smart ships through our joint research with KR, which is renowned for its cybersecurity certification technology. In addition, we will continue to deliver ships with the very latest world-class cybersecurity capabilities for our customers.”
Demand for reliable cyber protection remains to expand. KR developed a marine cyber protection monitoring qualification system in 2018 and also offers qualification solutions for business and also ships, along with cyber protection kind authorization solutions for ship networks and also automated systems. The maritime online protection monitoring qualification system incorporates the worldwide protection requirements (ISO 27001 and also IEC 62443), the marine cyber protection standards of the IMO and also the delivery organization BIMCO.
