Cybersecurity Challenges and Strategies for Maritime Software like AMOS in Shipping Companies
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The maritime industry is undergoing a significant transformation through the adoption of digital technologies that enhance operational efficiency, safety, and compliance. Among these technologies, the Asset Management Operating System (AMOS) stands out as a vital enterprise software system used across global shipping companies for maintenance, procurement, and inventory control. Despite its advantages, this digital shift introduces notable cybersecurity challenges, exposing maritime operations to risks ranging from data breaches and malware attacks to supply chain vulnerabilities. This paper investigates the cybersecurity risks associated with maritime software like AMOS, contextualizes them within industry standards and regulations, and proposes strategic frameworks for mitigation. Drawing on a comprehensive literature review and expert practices, the study advocates for layered defense strategies, policy enhancements, and collaborative governance as essential pillars of maritime cybersecurity resilience.
