The collaboration integrates Cydome\u2019s class-certified cybersecurity technology into the Rakuten Maritime digital infrastructure platform, enabling multi-layered protection across the entire vessel lifecycle.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe cooperation comes at a time of escalating maritime threat levels and increased ship connectivity, which is expanding the attack surface,\u201d said Cydome CEO Nir Ayalon, adding that generative AI is transforming how hackers expose system vulnerabilities.<\/p>\n

\u201cAttackers are now using AI to identify and exploit vulnerabilities at machine speed, turning new flaws into active threats within hours. This leaves defenders with practically zero time to patch systems. Securing vessels one system at a time with basic firewalls and endpoint antivirus is no longer enough to stop these modern threats.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ayalon said that shipping companies need a unified solution, one that is already built for maritime environments, rather than making adaptations and managing fragmented cyber tools.<\/p>\n

The Cydome approach secures the vessel from cyber hackers with the best-in-class protection for IT as well as maritime-specific operational technology (OT) that uses unique maritime protocols like NMEA and MODBUS and other proprietary protocols. This is crucial for the ship\u2019s critical functionality and business continuity.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs vessels become more connected and more regulations are imposed, safeguarding OT is the main concern for maritime companies,\u201d added Ayalon. \u201cAdditionally, context-aware AI analyses information from multiple layers of protection simultaneously, identifying the context of events and their impact on the entire ship. This moves beyond standard monitoring of individual assets for disconnected anomalies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBy partnering with Rakuten Maritime, we are ensuring that sophisticated, AI-driven protection is accessible to every vessel, regardless of its age, existing architecture, or the technical expertise of the crew onboard,\u201d said Ayalon.<\/p>\n
