updates: The Biden administration will issue an Executive Order to strengthen US maritime cybersecurity and give new powers to the Department of Homeland Security and the US Coast Guard to address maritime cyber threats. The US Coast Guard will have the authority to require vessels and waterfront facilities to mitigate cyber conditions that may endanger safety. The Coast Guard will also have the authority to control the movement of vessels that present a known or suspected cyber threat. The administration will invest $20 billion in modernizing US port infrastructure over the next five years. The maritime sector is vulnerable to cyberattacks due to the reliance on digital systems for critical operations. The interconnected nature of the sector was highlighted by a ransomware attack on a Norwegian software supplier in January 2023. The shipping sector is also susceptible to cyberattacks due to the variety of technologies and types of vessels in the commercial fleet. The industry is a major target for cybercriminals and nation-state groups. The maritime transportation system supports $54 trillion worth of economic activity each year and 95% of cargo entering the US.
