Description
With 80+% of world trade moving across the sea, the maritime industry plays a strategic role in the world economy and is responsible for a host of critical infrastructure. As a coastal state with two deep water ports, North Carolina has a vested interest in the state of maritime cybersecurity. It appears that maritime cybersecurity posture lags other sectors. In this talk, we review the state of cybersecurity education within the maritime community and consider the possible value that cybersecurity students from non-maritime education and training (MET) institutions could bring to bear on maritime cybersecurity. We explore what additional knowledge these students might need in order to be ready to enter the maritime cybersecurity workforce and readily contribute.
