Protecting Industrial Cyber Ecosystems

[Episode 11 - Wärtsilä Series Part 2]

A system is only as secure as its weakest point. In this episode, we discuss cyber ecosystems with Wärtsilä, examining the advantages and vulnerabilities that support connectivity. "The ecosystem in the marine environment is a very populated space," says Eric Schreiber, General Manager for New Technologies at Wärtsilä. "There are a lot of hands in the pot, and not everyone has cybersecurity expertise." "There are a million things that can be taken into account when you are operating your vessel, and those come from IT and OT systems that expand far beyond the vessel ecosystem," adds Christopher Stein, Cybersecurity Expert at Wärtsilä.
