Are you into Maritime Surveillance? How does your organisation currently addresses vessel monitoring challenges?

What is a Coastal Surveillance System (CSS)?  A Coastal Surveillance System allows various maritime authorities to monitor traffic in a dedicated area and identify any abnormal behaviour to secure activities along the coast.   STYRIS is an end-to-end coastal surveillance system that combines data from various sensors (radar, weather, AIS, VHF …) to provide a comprehensive view of the maritime situation on the coast and in economic areas.   STYRIS is a highly flexible solution that enables fast decision-making, providing an easy-to-use, comprehensive maritime picture to improve situational awareness.   Read more here to understand how STYRIS meets the needs of maritime end-users: https://lnkd.in/diWjTghx   #styris #maritime #surveillance #security #safety

Navigating the vast expanse of the maritime world requires more than just a sturdy vessel—communication is key! Maritime Communication Systems have evolved to ensure seamless connectivity for safety and efficiency. Advanced satellite technology keeps vessels linked globally, providing real-time weather updates and navigational aid. Enhanced security measures protect against maritime threats, making the oceans safer for all. In a world where the oceans connect us, efficient communication is the anchor that holds everything together. #MaritimeSafety #MaritimeTechnology #CommunicationSystems #SatelliteTech #GlobalConnectivity #MarineSecurity #Seafaring #TechInMaritime Link to the article given in the below comments.

The Bridge Navigational Watch Alarm System (BNWAS) is essential for modern ships, ensuring that watch officers stay alert and responsive, significantly reducing the risk of accidents. 🌊 Learn why BNWAS is a key component for maritime safety and how it works to keep our oceans secure. 🚢⚓ #BNWAS #MarineSafety #Navigation #TerasakiFE #ShipSafety #MaritimeTechnology

With summer at its midpoint, many are boarding planes, on their way to a well-deserved vacation. Protecting civil aviation is critical to our safety and a nation's economic well-being. Many key areas require different levels of physical security. Our security solutions can protect airports and associated infrastructure using perimeter intrusion detection, video management, video analytics and access control.

#Estonia should develop the capability for underwater surveillance to help prevent future sabotage of communication cables, security expert Jaanus Rahumägi said. According to him, it is possible to detect noises on the seabed, such as those caused by an anchor dropping, and respond immediately. Deploying a patrol vessel to protect cables is more of a political statement, he added. "Our current capability is limited to sending a warship to a given area, but it lacks cutting-edge technology to detect underwater activities and acts of sabotage," Jaanus Rahumägi told ERR. "This is not just about identifying damage caused by an anchor dragging over a cable but about detecting organized, well-prepared sabotage, which is very difficult to identify without state-of-the-art technology. Estonia currently does not have such technology. Acquiring it must be a priority for the country." "There are two options," Rahumägi continued. "Either the state creates a modern unit within the Navy or it outsources the task. In the latter case, private companies that own these cables and pipelines would be responsible for their security, gathering information and monitoring the situation. The Navy would then respond to potential acts of sabotage, as it holds the authority to use force." "This requires serious consideration for the future. We proposed that Estonia acquire such capabilities back when both Nord Stream pipelines were blown up. For Estonia, this is an entirely new issue. Traditionally, Estonians avoid taking action until it becomes absolutely necessary. However, by that point, it is often too late. I don't believe it is too late today, but I do think this is the last moment to start addressing the issue," Rahumägi warned. "Recent events suggest a new global phenomenon, a wave of deliberate cable cuts. These incidents appear to be testing the limits and readiness of Western allies to respond." https://lnkd.in/dMdaRtWw

Detecting small boats (RCS 1 m²) at distances above 10 NM in sea clutter (states 1 and 3) is challenging due to clutter and high false alarm rates. It would be valuable to see the ELM-2112 radar's performance under these conditions to assess its effectiveness.

Critical underwater infrastructure sabotage strikes again, this time off Taiwan's coast, but there’s a big twist to this latest incident... On January 3, Taiwanese authorities accused a Chinese freighter of severing a subsea communications cable near Keelung. What initially appeared to involve only one vessel, Xing Shun 39, has unraveled into a much more complex tale of identity tampering. Windward’s Maritime AI™ insights reveal: 🚢 Four seemingly distinct vessels, each with its own set of overlapping and differing names, IMOs, MMSIs, call signs, and flags, exhibit overlapping behavioral patterns ⚠️ One of these vessels, Xing Shun 39, has been flagged by Windward as a high-security risk since April 2024 for IMO spoofing, identity changes, and dark activities 🛰️ Shared routes and synchronized AIS transmissions, perhaps from more than one device on board, suggest a sophisticated effort to obscure the true culprit With commercial vessels increasingly linked to such incidents, the line between commercial and paramilitary operations is becoming dangerously blurred. Windward’s latest blog breaks down the incident, reviews the data, and explores how proactive intelligence can mitigate future risks 👉 https://hubs.la/Q031TL7Q0 #MaritimeSecurity #UnderwaterCables #UnderwaterInfrastructure
