Gedenlines upgrades satcoms, cyber security on tanker fleet

“High-quality tanker shipping requires attention to detail and a dedication to the highest quality standards, something we expect from all our partners,” said Gedenlines IT manager Baris Kopdag.

“Our goals and ambitions are to maintain smart and safe operations across our fleet now and into the future.”

Marlink is deploying its Sealink Nextgen hybrid communications and suites of cyber security tools to support Gedenlines’ transfer into digital operations.

These combine Starlink and global VSAT with XChange network management and Marlink’s unified threat management (UTM) to enable low-latency, high-bandwidth communications and enhanced cyber resilience.

Improved cyber security includes application controls, web filtering, UTM, intrusion protection and anti-virus software.
