The Growing Problem: The Wireless Blind Spot in Maritime Cybersecurity

The U.S. maritime sector is facing a critical cybersecurity gap—the wireless blind spot. While traditional cybersecurity solutions monitor internal IT networks, wireless-connected devices and signals remain largely invisible, leaving ports, ships, and terminals vulnerable to attack.

Asset 9023

80% of port-side devices now connect wirelessly

Traditional IT tools provide no visibility into wireless activity.

GPS Spoofing, rogue LTE modems, Bluetooth skimmers, and RF jammers are being used for cyber-physical disruption.

These threats can interfere with OT systems, leading to operational downtime, lost cargo, and even vessel collisions.

Business Impact: Downtime, Fines, and Non-Compliance

The cost of ignoring Wireless Threats

 

Rogue Access Points

GPS Spoofing

Unmanaged Wireless/IoT Devices

RF Jamming or Signal Interference

Lack of Continuous Monitoring

No Forensic Data

Regulatory Urgency: USCG's 2025 Cybersecurity Rule (33 CFR 106)

Effective July 16th, 2025, all MTSA-regulated facilities must implement:
  • Baseline cyber risk assessments
  • Continuous cybersecurity monitoring
  • Incident response plans
  • Documentation and audit readiness
  • Enforcement of cybersecurity procedures and controls

These requirements explicitly extend to wireless and RF-based cyber threats - an area unmonitored by most maritime cybersecurity stacks today.
