Globally, the maritime industry makes extensive use of technology for business and operational purposes. Vessel and service operators make use of computer systems and interconnected technologies for engineering, communication, navigation, movement of cargo, ballast and environmental mechanisms.
Ports utilize computer generated systems to work with drawbridges, curb traffic lights, schedule trucks to deliver, pick up containers, and SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems to modulate valves, pumps and pipelines to deliver fuel. Emergency systems such as fire detection, security cameras and alarms increasingly depend on cyber technology. The maritime sector employs an interconnected cyber network to implement contracts, enable financial transactions, perform related business functions, and place orders over wireless networks to other businesses.
