THE ROLE OF CYBER SITUATIONAL AWARENESS OF HUMANS IN SOCIAL ENGINEERING CYBER ATTACKS ON THE MARITIME DOMAIN

Abstract

Through technological advancements, the expanding proportion of maritime transportation on a global scale is becoming faster, more automated, more digital, and ultimately more cyber-space. In particular, the Industrial Revolution 4.0 has brought real-time digital integration of stakeholders in the maritime industry, both on land and at sea, into cyberspace. However, the scope of life and property protection at sea has expanded with the participation of the cyber environment as well as the physical environment. The human factor plays a leading role in ensuring the security of both the physical and cyber environment. In parallel, the main target of hackers who try to gain profit by violating the security environment is the person who does not have sufficient situational awareness of cyber security and can be called the weakest link in the chain. In this study, as main goal, the role of the situational awareness of the employees in the past cyber-attacks on the maritime industry was examined, and a perspective on the measures to be taken was presented. To achieve this research goal, the study utilized the snowballing technique to access literature, which helped uncover additional relevant resources not initially detected. This was followed by a systematic analysis of the collected literature. An analysis of attacks conducted since 2010 revealed that 76% of them utilized social engineering methods, such as phishing, malware, and ransomware. These attackers appear to exploit the maritime industry's insufficient cybersecurity awareness among its employees and the lack of a comprehensive understanding of cybersecurity within the industry.
