Marlink Cyber is a managed cyber security services provider specialising in the maritime, offshore energy, oil and gas, and yachting sectors. We protect IT and OT environments through our Unified Cyber Portal integrating endpoint detection, network detection and response, firewall management, remote access, and OT security into a single platform managed by our expert SOC team.

Our primary customers operate in the maritime and offshore energy industries: shipping companies, vessel operators, offshore platforms, port organisations, and superyacht owners. However, Marlink Cyber also serves organisations that do not directly operate in these sectors, we are agnostic.

Yes. While our roots are firmly in maritime and offshore, Marlink Cyber also protects shore-based operations and corporate offices that are connected to, or dependent on, maritime and energy environments. Many of our customers manage a mix of vessel IT, OT systems, and onshore infrastructure we protect the full chain. We reuse the knowledge that we have also on our non-maritime customers thus making sure we are able to deliver the best in class solutions and services.

Our Security Operations Centre operates on a follow-the-sun model, with analysts covering all time zones around the clock. This means your environment is actively monitored 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year not by automated alerts alone, but by experienced human analysts. Every alert is reviewed, triaged, and acted upon. Whether an incident occurs at 3am on a vessel in the Pacific or during a weekend in port, our SOC team is on it.

Yes. Regulatory compliance is a core part of what we do. We have deep experience with frameworks and regulations relevant to our sectors, including the IMO 2021 Maritime Cyber Risk Management guidelines, NIS2, IEC 62443 for OT environments, and sector-specific requirements such as E26/E27 for new-build vesselsn. Our services are designed to provide both the technical controls and the evidence of those controls that auditors and in the maritime sector flag states require. We can help you assess your current posture, close the gaps, and maintain continuous compliance over time.

Maritime, offshore and energy environments are fundamentally different from office IT. Vessels operate in remote locations with satellite connectivity, limited bandwidth, and OT systems that cannot simply be patched or rebooted. Our team understands these constraints we design our solutions around them. We combine deep sector knowledge, a purpose-built Unified Cyber Portal, and a SOC staffed with analysts who know the difference between a vessel's ECDIS and an enterprise workstation.

Onboarding is structured to minimise disruption to operations. We begin with an asset discovery and risk assessment, deploy our monitoring stack (typically EDR, NDR, and firewall management), and integrate your environment into our SOC within a matter of weeks. For new-build vessels or greenfield deployments, we can plan the security architecture from the ground up. Your dedicated onboarding team will guide you through every step.  

The easiest way to get started is to contact our team directly through the Marlink website or reach out to your Marlink account manager. We will schedule an introductory call to understand your environment, your risk profile, and your compliance requirements and walk you through a live demonstration of our Unified Cyber Portal tailored to your sector.
