The Critical Infrastructure Security for Maritime MODULE aims at describing the maritime environment and specificities. A focus is done on the Maritime Systems and specificities as well as on international regulation. Common vulnerabilities of systems and applications are detailed.
Risk analysis, security plans, policies and processes, regulatory framework and security standards continuity and recovery measures are presented.
This module has been developed by C2B consulting a French SME specialized in maritime security and located in Toulon in the south of France.

The CSP module 003, as part of the Cybsersecpro education and training project is designed to provide trainees and professionals with the knowledge and skills needed to apprehend evolving cyber threats in the maritime domain. Specifically designed for the maritime sector, this module goes beyond generic cybersecurity training to address the unique challenges of risks and vulnerabilities faced by the maritime administrations and operators. This training is part of EU Innovation Project namely "CyberSecPro". The aim to develop a large variety of materials that can be used by educators and trainers in cybersecurity. CyberSecPro’s ambition is to enhance the role of the Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) in offering hands-on and working-life skills for driving a trustworthy digital transformation in critical sectors of the economy.
The CSP03 module is aiming at address the specific needs of :
- Managers and Leaders operating in operational positions of critical infrastructure and or Operators of essential services
- Working-life professionals all over the maritime digitalized domain
- SMEs and Public Sector Employees
The CSP 003 module takes place twice a year during the Autumn period, and Winter. It can take place in Toulon on demand, at the NMIOTC NATO Training Centre in Greece in Autumn and in December and January at the University du Littoral de côte d'Opale in Dunkirk (France). It represents a theoretical course as part of a global maritime cybersecurity mix of course and workshops including on-hands training as part of some specific areas (AIS and SCADA training) and for dedicated training audiences.
It addresses cybersecurity of Critical Infrastructure, Operator of essential services as well as generic risk encountered by Maritime stakeholders
- The course takes into account National specificities for critical infrastructure but also the ones regulating the EU NIS directive for Operators of essential services
- It aims at presenting the Importance of data (EU Classified Information, Sensitive data, ….) in a EU framework
At least it will assess existing risks and present specific mitigation as Cryptography or even insurances which are an important pillar of risks in the maritime domain.
----
This module designed for maritime stakeholders aims at identifying risks for critical infrastructure to improve their resilience. The module addresses maritime critical infrastructure and operators of essential services as identified in the NIS directive - it represents a baseline of cybersecurity risk management in the maritime domain and it aims at equipping participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to manage cyber security risks.
----
The training outcomes can be resumed as following :
- To demonstrate ethical and professional conduct in all aspects of information and cybersecurity management.
- To understand and articulate the key concepts and principles of information and cybersecurity.
- To apprehend the evolving cyber threat landscape and the diverse range of cyberattacks.
- To Identify the cybersecurity threats, vulnerabilities, and risks to an organisation.
- To recognise the human factor's role in cybersecurity breaches and risk mitigation strategies.
- To help and select appropriate security controls to protect against identified cybersecurity threats and risks.
