Cyber-SHIP Lab, situated at the University of Plymouth, is a research facility dedicated to researching and address cybersecurity threats in the maritime industry. Professor Kevin Jones is the Executive Dean for Science and Engineering and Principal Investigator at the lab.

The lab is able to create realistic simulations of shipping networks to test for vulnerabilities against maritime control systems.

History

The Cyber-SHIP Lab was founded in 2019 as a collaborative initiative between the University of Plymouth and industry partners. It was funded by Research England. The lab was initially given three years funding which expired in 2022. The lab cost £3 million to construct.

In 2021, the lab partnered with the Royal Navy on marine-tech projects including the Project Hecla, originally started in 2018.

In 2023, the lab co-organised a symposium on maritime cybersecurity and resilience along with the International Maritime Organization. The event was held in London.
