Nowadays, the maritime industry has become increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats. From shipbuilders to IT vendors to ports, no part of the industry is immune. Since 2022, there were five major maritime cybersecurity incidents* highlighting the need for increased vigilance and improved cybersecurity measures.

The evolution of Internet and the improvement of satellite connections coverage and speed has led the maritime industry to go digital on all aspects and especially on their fleet

MarPoint is a leading maritime system integrator and IT services company, delivering IT and network solutions to over 3,000 vessels. To provide the best possible service, we employ DevOps practices, including Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD).

When it comes to impact on future generations, each is just as significant as the other. Without green and eco-friendly products and practices, the earth will suffer; and without sustainable activities, we may deplete resources.

Commercial vessels are acting as maritime companies’ remote offices, meaning that their continuous and safe operation, is of high importance. Especially nowadays, where most of the operations take place over the Internet, data integrity is crucial.

In the digital era, software applications have become a structural part of the business ecosystem in the maritime industry. As technology rapidly evolves, the pace that new challenges come up for any system and any team is growing every day.

With vessels being equipped with the latest technology, sensors and software solutions, efficiency and cost savings are brought to the foreground. One of the most advanced and well-developed technologies nowadays is sensor technology, replacing many of the manual tasks, like examining equipment aboard ships.

The ability to optimize the delivery of goods from manufacturer to consumer is the key to a successful business.

At Marpoint, we calculate each stage of the project’s implementation, by forming a logical chain where each segment has its own rules of work and individual leaders.

When you’re setting up a vessel’s network (Business and/or Crew), choosing the correct switches in networking can make all the difference in your network speed and configuration.
