The Lloyd’s List Podcast: The cyber threat to maritime and the insurance industry's response

There is a disconnect between the increasing risk to maritime businesses posed by Cyber attacks and the defences being erected in response. So as UK president Joe Biden was declaring it a "patriotic obligation" for businesses to bridge that gap, Lloyd’s List and Insurance Day were busy this week gathering the industry’s leading experts for a frank discussion of the evolving threat to shipping and how standardisation, transparency and a significant uptick in funding are required to avert a looming crisis. This week Lloyd’s List teamed up with our colleagues and friends at Insurance Day for a timely webinar looking at the cyber threat to maritime and the insurance industry's response. This week’s edition of the podcast offers some highlights from the live event, but a full recording of the webinar is available, for free. Register at Lloydslist.com or Insuranceday.com and listen at your leisure. Speakers on this week’s edition include: Julian Clark, Global Senior Partner at Ince Päivi Brunou, Head of Cyber Security Technology at Wärtsilä Voyage. Bill Egerton – Chief Cyber Officer, Astaara Simon Meech, Cyber practice leader, cyber and technology division, BMS Kelly Malynn, Senior Risk Manager, Beazley
