Please join the Cyber Statecraft Initiative, under the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, on Friday, April 1, from 10:30 to 11:15 a.m.

EDT for a virtual, public discussion about improving cybersecurity in the maritime domain. Few industries are as critical to the global economy as

the maritime transportation system (MTS), which is responsible for the safe transport of both seafaring passengers and the vast majority of

international trade. The e�cient operation of the MTS is at risk, though, as the industry is increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats–in 2020,

cyberattacks targeting the MTS increased by 400 percent in just a few months. Speakers at this event will discuss how to better secure the

domain and properly focus government resources from both the United States and its partners and allies in an e�ort critical to securing the global

economy.

This event features an esteemed cabinet-level panel including the Hon. Alejandro Mayorkas, the US Secretary of Homeland Security, and H.E.

Dilan Yeşilgöz-Zegerius, the Minister of Justice and Security for the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The Hon. Karen Andrews MP, the Australian

Minister for Home A�airs, will also make remarks, and the Cyber Statecraft Initiative’s own Mr. Kurt John, nonresident senior fellow with the

program and Chief Cybersecurity O�cer for Siemens USA, will moderate the discussion.

This event is a continuation of the Atlantic Council’s work on maritime cybersecurity, including the Cyber Statecraft Initiative’s Raising the Colors report and the issue brief Cybersecurity Concerns for the Energy Sector in the Maritime Domain, published jointly with the Atlantic

Council’s Global Energy Center.

Protecting the global marine transportation system against cyber threats

The global maritime transport system is the backbone of international trade and a pillar of US power projection. It is also increasingly under cyber

attack, and securing the system will require signi�cant policy and industry engagement.

Raising the colors: Signaling for cooperation on maritime cybersecurity

By William Loomis, Virpratap Vikram Singh, Dr. Gary C. Kessler, Dr. Xavier Bellekens

Few industries are as critical to the global economy as the maritime transportation system (MTS). However, the e�cient operation of the MTS

is at risk, as the industry is increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. The MTS must work to raise its baseline for cybersecurity and better

protect its actors from systemic cyber threats going forward.

Cybersecurity concerns for the energy sector in the maritime domain

By Andy Bochman, Ian Ralby

As a wide spectrum of energy companies continue to rely on the maritime domain or even increase that reliance, they must be mindful that

traditional maritime threats—like piracy, theft, and weather events—are not the only threats they face today. Maritime cybersecurity concerns

are among the most potentially disruptive to energy-sector interests, and yet are among the least understood and addressed.

The Atlantic Council’s Cyber Statecraft Initiative, under the Digital Forensic Research Lab (DFRLab), works at the nexus of geopolitics and

cybersecurity to craft strategies to help shape the conduct of statecraft and to better inform and secure users of technology.
