I find myself dreaming the same dreams again.

It has been about four years since I left the shipbuilding industry. Now, I find myself dreaming the same dreams again.


This journey was reignited thanks to MOL, ClassNK, and EY Maritime Cyber Hub, which gave me this opportunity.
I sincerely hope that EY MCH will grow to become a global leader in maritime cybersecurity, not only in ASEAN but across the world.

I will do my utmost to make this vision a reality. To everyone who knows me and whom I know, I kindly ask for your support and collaboration.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year!

[MaritimeCyberTrend] Relationship and prospects between U.S. Chinese maritime operations and maritime cybersecurity

U.S. Sanctions on Chinese Ships & Cybersecurity Compliance The U.S. Trade Representative (USTR)’s sanctions on Chinese shipping and shipbuilding are expected to heighten the importance of cybersecurity regulations in vessel operations. In particular, as the U.S. increasingly frames Chinese-built ships and shipping companies as cybersecurity risks, compliance with maritime cybersecurity standards will become a critical issue for global shipping stakeholders. The United States is increasingly likely to classify Chinese-built vessels as national security and cybersecurity threats, using this as a basis for additional regulations and sanctions. In particular, drawing from past sanctions on Huawei and ZTE, the U.S. may argue that ships built in Chinese shipyards and equipped with Chinese IT systems (navigation, communication, and monitoring equipment) pose risks to the digital maritime infrastructure of the U.S. and its allies. As a result, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) is expected to s...

🌐 When a Ship's GPS Is Hacked: The Gap in Global Maritime Cyber Regulations – Examining the Reality of Cyber Incidents and the Shortfalls in Compliance Frameworks As maritime logistics rapidly digitalizes, the 2025 cyber grounding of MSC Antonia marks a clear turning point—showing that the industry must move beyond technology alone and embrace practical cyber resilience in real-world operations. The maritime cyber market has reached a turning point where it must move beyond mere technical compliance; it now requires the integrated operation of real-time threat response capabilities during vessel operation, organizational-level cyber governance, and the practical cybersecurity competence of crew members to effectively bridge the gap between stagnant global regulations and rapidly evolving threats. 📌 1. The 2025 MSC Antonia Incident – A Ship Hacked Mid-Voyage In May 2025, the MSC Antonia, a container ship operated by one of the world’s largest shipping lines, ran aground near Jedda...

  Comprehensive List of Shipboard Systems in Commercial Vessels Beyond the core navigation, power, safety, cargo, and crew welfare systems, modern commercial ships incorporate a wide range of specialized systems to optimize operations, improve efficiency, and comply with international maritime regulations. Below is a detailed breakdown of shipboard systems, including advanced and auxiliary systems often overlooked. 1. Navigation & Control Systems (Ensuring Safe and Efficient Maneuvering) 📌 Core systems responsible for vessel control, automation, and positioning. Integrated Bridge System (IBS) – Merges multiple navigation tools into a single console for improved efficiency. Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) – The "black box" that records navigational and operational data for accident investigation. Speed Log System – Measures ship speed over water or ground using Doppler sensors. Echo Sounder (Depth Finder) – Detects underwater terrain to prevent grounding. Rudd...
