Cybersecurity statement

This statement provides an overview of Alphatron Marine's approach to Cybersecurity. It gives information on our security best practices and the way we manage information to ensure that we meet the industries best practices.

Security Policy

Safety and security are important to Alphatron Marine. Therefore, we follow and apply the industry guidelines and IMO regulations. Our policies cover a wide range of topics, from handling personal and confidential information to physical security of our products. All policies are communicated with all employees. The organization receives a signed acknowledgement from its employees that indicate that they have read, understood and agree to follow the policies. The policies are regularly audited and reviewed and updated where necessary.

Organizational Security

In addition to policies, we have a cybersecurity team in place. This team ensures compliance with rules and regulations and manages the cybersecurity within Alphatron Marine. They define and implement control measures, raise awareness, audit internal and external policies, track incidents, perform vulnerability assessments, mitigate threats and risks. This advisory team ensures that information is available for employees, customers and vendors.

Employee Security

All employees have to act according to the company guidelines. We regularly raise awareness for this topic through employee training and awareness campaigns. Furthermore, employees sign a document during the onboarding process which states that they will follow and respect the company guidelines and regulations. Violations of our policies may result in disciplinary actions.

We install antivirus and malware detection on the employee's laptops and make sure employees are security-aware.

Internal Security

Security requirements and design are considered for all projects and products, and we follow secure development practices. We have access controls on source code, and access is managed. All releases are tested. Our release checklist includes considering security issues. We have a standard starters and leavers process. We centrally manage access to many services. Furthermore, we use two-factor authentication wherever possible. Where we do store user credentials (passwords) they are hashed. Disaster recovery backups are in place and our IT infrastructure is protected by state-of-the-art security measures.

Remote Security

All our remote network connections are secured based on state-of-the-art standards. We use secure protocols to set up remote connections. Our internal network and external remote connections are completely segregated. We comply to all IMO regulations and cybersecurity best practices.

Incident management

We have a cybersecurity incident response plan in place. These plans describe the responsibilities, required actions and escalation parties in case of an incident. The policies are regularly reviewed and tested. Incidents can be reported through our website and in case of emergency through our 24/7 phone number.
