Bureau Veritas (BV) has awarded a type approval certification to three of Navarino’s maritime solutions, Infinity, Angel, and Spectrum.
Infinity is an advanced maritime bandwidth management and optimisation solution and is installed on more than 9,000 vessels. Spectrum is a software suite designed to cater specifically to the needs of maritime IT managers, and Angel is the first cybersecurity service designed and developed to meet the requirements of the merchant marine sector.
Throughout the certification process, BV provided guidance to ensure the cyber-resilience of all critical assets specified in the software and hardware architecture of the three solutions.
This was achieved through working sessions and rigorous evaluation of the three solutions in terms of developed documentation and procedures, penetration testing and hardening reports implementation. The final phase of the certification consisted of a survey that was performed to validate specific points such as equipment compliance, account and security policy, network architecture and security, recovery, and patch management procedures.
Navarino CEO, Dimitris Tsikopoulos said: “We are very proud that Bureau Veritas has certified our Infinity, Spectrum and Angel solutions with Type Approval. As the maritime sector’s digital evolution gathers pace at an ever-greater rate, choosing digitalisation tools that are designed precisely for maritime is important for ship operators to ensure that their vessels are able to enjoy the many benefits that technology can bring, and do so as safely as possible. This certification from Bureau Veritas is a highly respected seal of quality for our solutions that reflects the value of the technology tools we offer.”
