Dryad Global to Host High-Impact LISW 2025 Seminar on Maritime Cyber Defence & Risk Intelligence

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, September 8, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Two expert panels will unpack the 2025 threat picture and practical solutions for fleets, ports, and supply chains — Tuesday 16 September, Norton Rose Fulbright, London.

Dryad Global today announced Navigating the Future: Maritime Cyber Defence, Maritime Cybersecurity & Risk Intelligence, a free, two-hour seminar during London International Shipping Week 2025 that brings together leading practitioners in maritime cyber, risk intelligence, and law to address how the sector can protect vessels, ports, and digital infrastructure amid escalating threats.

“Shipping is contending with cyberattacks on OT/IT systems, geopolitical shocks, and tightening regulatory requirements — all at once,” said Corey Ranslem, CEO of Dryad Global and seminar moderator. “This session focuses on the real controls, contracts, and playbooks that reduce risk where it matters: on the bridge, in the SOC, across ports — and in the boardroom.”
