🚫 No fire detection means no going to sea.
If you're running the Consilium Safety CS5000 fire panel on board, hardcoded credentials could let an attacker shut it down remotely.
 
As a result, if the system is taken offline, your vessel could be detained, lose its class certification, or be prevented from sailing altogether.
 
There is no patch available. The vendor has stated they won’t fix the issue unless cybersecurity was part of your original contract.
 
If your panel was installed before July 2024, it likely wasn’t designed with modern cybersecurity in mind.
 
Andrew Tierney explains how we discovered the vulnerability, its implications for operators, and the steps you can take to mitigate the risk.
