Abstract

Scientific and technological progress is an underlying factor for merchant shipping as well, which is evolving in terms of the size and speed of modern ships and the level of their technical equipment. Vessel performance is also increasing and the number of crew members on board is decreasing as more and more work processes are automated through the introduction of IT technologies, including ship management systems. In spite of numerous requests by IMO to focus on effective maritime security protection against cyber-attacks, problems remain unresolved. Owners of the shipping business do not disclose information about attempts or incidents of cyber attacks directed against them, fearing commercial losses or consequences, such as loss of image, claims by clients and insurance companies, investigations by independent international bodies and public authorities. Cyber security issues of management systems in today's world have gained importance, due to the fact that the current threats are not only concerned with the safety of technical equipment and devices, but also issues of environmental and safety of life at sea. The article analyzes the application of recommendations on the control of cyber risks in the maritime sphere within safety management systems to ensure safe functioning of ship systems monitored with the help of computer equipment.
