Blue Initiative launches maritime-only vulnerability database for shipping IT and OT
Original title: Blue Initiative Offers Maritime Sector Dedicated Vulnerability Database
The database will publish only vulnerabilities for which a patch is available, and no n0n leak-site victims have confirmed incidents.
A coalition of Cydome, Rakuten Maritime, Bureau Veritas, ClassNK and MTS-ISAC launched the Blue Initiative on October 26, a database that will list only IT and OT vulnerabilities relevant to the maritime sector. The Maritime Vulnerabilities Repository will let users browse and filter CVEs by equipment or vendor and receive alerts, with entries validated by partner researchers and published only once a patch exists. The launch follows continued attacks on shipping, including the n0n extortion group listing dozens of maritime organizations on its leak site on October 12, none of which have confirmed incidents.
Unconfirmed: No victim of the n0n extortion group's October 12 listings has confirmed a security incident.
