Intelligence-led security for vessels of every flag and purpose — superyachts and private fleets, commercial and offshore operators, naval and government programmes — and the people aboard them. We see your vessel the way an adversary would — your systems, your crew, your movements — and close the gaps before anyone can use them.
A sample of what we find on vessels and fleets, sanitized for public view.
Live management dashboards exposing vessel identifiers, crew emails, and internal records — located before testing began.
Continuous visual access to marina berths, decks, and interiors — crew movements and guest activity, in real time.
VSAT consoles located and reached — exposing configuration, antenna positioning, and routing. Disruption confirmed.
Reused logins from crew CVs and old accounts, found in breach databases years later — still valid, still protecting active systems.
Crew records exposed through a management portal — names, roles, contact details, and travel documents, all reachable from the open web.
Operational technology — engine, power, and steering interfaces — found reachable, the systems a vessel cannot run without.
A single supplier credential exposing access across every vessel a management company touches.
All imagery is sanitized. Client data is never shown, and every engagement is conducted with authorization.

We began with penetration testing on naval and commercial maritime systems — whole fleets, and every attack surface that came with them: the vessels, their supply chains, and the vendors behind them. That is where we learned how these systems really fail, and what it takes to hold them together.
Over time we added the private side. The same questions that mattered across naval and commercial fleets mattered just as much on private yachts — where the people aboard, and everything they carry with them, deserve that same standard of care. We never left the first work behind; we run all of it.
Today we work across private, commercial, and government fleets — owners, management companies, operators, and defence programmes internationally. No vessel is too small, and no fleet is too large. That trust is what we have built EPCYBER Maritime around.

Confidential engagements
Served worldwide
Rotating crews, personal devices, credentials sitting in old databases — the people aboard are both the first line of defence and the first target. We train them like it matters.
Explore crew trainingBefore we approach a single system, we establish what is already exposed — across sources most firms never think to examine. Credentials, connections, documentation, patterns of movement: whatever can be found, we surface first, and we map precisely how it could be turned against the vessel.
We then test the vessel and everything connected to it as a capable adversary would — methodically, and without interrupting operations on board. Every point of entry is identified, verified, and recorded. Nothing is left to assumption.
You receive a single, precise report: each finding rated by real-world risk, each remediation defined, and the whole prioritised so your team knows what to address first. Board-ready, insurer-ready, and delivered in complete confidence.
A full intelligence-led exposure assessment of your vessel or fleet — satellite consoles, open camera feeds, breached crew credentials, exposed systems — with a prioritized report.
→Active testing of VSAT, ECDIS, onboard networks, cloud dashboards, and connected shore-side infrastructure. We attempt what an attacker would.
→Built for maritime crews, not generic corporate IT — phishing, social engineering, AI-driven threats, USB attacks, in plain language.
→An assessment of your crew's digital footprint — targeted data and exposure, found before someone else uses it.
→Strategic review for owners, captains, managers, or insurers — posture, gaps, and guidance without a full engagement.
→Ongoing dark-web and open-source watch on your vessel, crew, and principal — active alerts, plus a monthly intelligence brief.
→Recommended before charter season, delivery from shipyard, ownership transfer, refit completion, crew change, fleet onboarding, or contract award. Every engagement runs without touching vessel operations. team@epcyber.com
Private, commercial, or government — if it sails and it is connected, we assess it. We work directly with anyone responsible for a vessel, a fleet, or the people aboard, with no membership, introduction, or minimum fleet size required.
From single-vessel owners to multi-yacht families and charter operators — anyone responsible for a vessel's privacy and the people aboard it. We work fast, remotely, and around the vessel.
Cargo, tanker, offshore and support vessels, ferries and passenger operators — fleets where an hour of downtime is measured in money, cargo, and schedule. Assessed without interrupting operations.
Naval programmes, coast guard and government fleets, and the contractors building for them. This is where we started: penetration testing on naval and commercial maritime systems, and every attack surface behind them.
Fleet and shipyard teams, captains, and brokers who build our assessments into their own process — sharp findings, in plain language, no IT department required.
The yards, integrators and vendors a vessel depends on. One supplier credential can open an entire fleet — we test that path before someone else walks it.
Risk assessors and underwriters who need verifiable, insurer-ready documentation to price exposure and meet compliance — independently produced, and built to plug into your process.
On the water and in port. Discreet, on your schedule, wherever the fleet goes.
