Launched in December 2024, Rakuten Maritime delivers an integrated cybersecurity platform designed for various vessel types. The solution offers protection across the entire vessel lifecycle, from design and operation to maintenance, helping shipbuilders and operators address evolving cybersecurity challenges.
The newly certified CYTUR-MCTI module provides real-time cybersecurity insights based on advanced maritime cyber threat intelligence. The module proactively monitors threats across the maritime ecosystem and offers continuous expert consulting to help clients respond effectively to evolving risks.
Specifically, CYTUR-MCTI analyzes extensive data collected from real maritime environments to identify vessels potentially exposed to risks similar to recent cyberattacks, delivering this information in real time. It also enables early detection of system vulnerabilities, allowing organizations to respond swiftly and strategically. As a result, CYTUR-MCTI helps prevent security incidents while supporting a more strategic and resilient approach to cybersecurity.
Faced with growing cyber risks in the maritime industry, this latest endorsement from ClassNK highlights Rakuten Maritime’s commitment to addressing emerging cybersecurity challenges and building trust through globally recognized solutions.
Ryan Son, President of Rakuten Symphony’s Internet Services Business Unit, and Head of Rakuten Maritime, commented, “The maritime cybersecurity paradigm is rapidly evolving from post-incident response to proactive, end-to-end protection embedded from the vessel design phase. Receiving three Innovation Endorsements from ClassNK — especially this endorsement recognizing the innovative features of CYTUR-MCTI — demonstrates our continued commitment to developing advanced cybersecurity capabilities that support smart ship innovation and maritime safety.”
Looking ahead, Rakuten Maritime will continue to advance technologies aligned with international regulations, support the digital transformation of the maritime sector and contribute to creating a safer, more efficient cybersecurity environment, ultimately playing a key role in setting global standards for maritime cybersecurity.
