Should a superyacht spend £10,000+ on cybersecurity 'pen' testing?

Should a superyacht spend £10,000, £15,000 or even £20,000 a year on cybersecurity penetration testing?

For some, absolutely.

However, not every yacht requires a comprehensive penetration test annually. It's not a mandatory requirement, as some people might think. It's just one of the many ways to check if your cyber defences are working.

Other, more cost-effective tools and forms of testing can sometimes provide better answers more quickly, leaving money for other cyber defences and tools you might need.

If you're unsure about the type of cybersecurity testing or penetration testing that best suits your superyacht program, please don't hesitate to get in touch.
