A risk register database will also be maintained by the IMCSO containing the results of ship assessments and audits enabling relevant parties to access the cyber risk profile of any given vessel.
Also an authorised supplier registry will also be made available by the IMCSO, and will act as a record of approved suppliers within the maritime cybersecurity speciality. Applicant organisations will need to meet certain certification and accreditation standards such as ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 as well as strict certification criteria.
