As every week in CENTUM Digital, we update you on the latest developments in cybersecurity. In this case, we will tell you all about our last participation in one of the cybersecurity webinars created by Logistop, called “Logistic-port security: trends and applications in cybersecurity in ports”.
This webinar was held last Wednesday, October 19, 2022, by several leading companies, including Tecnalia, Axians-Vinci Energies, r + D + I TIC, Logistop, Valenciaport Foundation, and CENTUM digital.
In our case, Diego Fernández González, cyber security manager of CENTUM Digital was the one who analyzed and explained in detail the dangers faced by logistics-port companies.
“The port sector has to face and manage a large number of services, each of them its own casuistry, so its protection against cyberattacks poses multiple challenges that, to face, the establishment of good security policies and a good risk analysis are key tools”
The biggest trends within the port area are the theft of information, the spread of malware on devices, encryption of systems and devices.
We could mention all the main risks faced by the port environment, but in reference to what concerns us, they are network and operational espionage attacks, and phishing attacks to obtain passwords.
Earlier in our blog, we inquired about the continuous phishing attacks that companies receive, find out here.
