Our Friends at Be Cyber Aware at Sea: "Welcome to this month’s edition of Phish & Ships, brought to you by The Be Cyber Aware at Sea campaign. These continue to be strange times but we hope you are all safe and well wherever you are today. This month the news is of fresh cyber attacks, including a second for Toll Group who were targeted earlier this year. These incidents must be seen as the warning they are for the industry at large. The impact of a cyber attack has unlimited potential beyond simple economic damage. Consider the ramifications on supply chains, loss of reputation and public trust – elements that are hard to quantify and recover. While COVID-19 is an on-going concern, we also cast a speculative eye over how the virus could change the way we work and its potential to further drive digitalisation in shipping. Needless to say, a push towards more digital reliance should come with greater investment in cyber security – we don’t want to swap the coronavirus for a cyber one."
