MarPoint’s Evo2 MultiRouter and UNI Vessel Virtualization Server have achieved revised type approval certifications under the IACS UR E27 standard for “Cyber Resilience of On-Board Systems and Equipment.” Certified by the American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), this milestone also ensures compliance with the IACS UR E26 standard for “Cyber Resilience of Ships.” These certifications highlight MarPoint’s commitment to advancing maritime cybersecurity and supporting the industry in meeting evolving regulatory requirements.
The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) is a globally respected classification society committed to ensuring the safety of life, property, and the marine environment. As a key member of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS), ABS plays a vital role in developing and maintaining standards for maritime safety and cybersecurity, ensuring that onboard systems and vessels are secure, reliable, and resilient.
The Significance of IACS UR E26 and E27
The IACS Unified Regulations E26 and E27, effective from July 1, 2024, are designed to enhance cybersecurity in maritime operations. UR E26 targets shipyards, designers, and vessel owners, ensuring that cybersecurity is integrated throughout a vessel’s lifecycle, from design to operational stages. In contrast, UR E27 focuses on suppliers, like MarPoint, to ensure that onboard systems and equipment are robust enough to withstand cyber threats, safeguarding the operational continuity of vessels. Together, these standards provide a comprehensive framework for maritime cybersecurity.
