Secure your cranes and terminals. Cargo keeps moving.
Maritime and port cybersecurity for OT
Control who reaches crane control, container and logistics systems. Nothing to install on the equipment, and no downtime.
Last updated:
Protect port OT without stopping cargo.
Access Gate connects to your existing port network. Cranes and terminals keep working.
See every machine.
Find every machine across quays, yards, terminals and offices.
Control who reaches what.
Keep crane control, terminal systems and customs IT apart. No VLAN changes, no re-cabling.
Reach any machine, securely.
Vendors, ship crews and logistics partners log in with MFA. Their VPN or 4G link ends at the gate.
Prove every audit.
Every connection is logged. Export audit evidence on demand.
The gate is the first service you run, not the last.
Secure your plants today. Control your digitalization tomorrow.
Access Gate puts compute on the wire, next to your assets. Once the gate is in, the same box hosts the services that pull OT in securely: remote access, protocol gateways, DNS and time, historian, update server. Accelerate your digitalization, in control.

Common questions about port security.
downtime to deploy. Access Gate connects to the existing network while the port operates, with no impact on cranes or terminals.
Yes. Access Gate works at the network level. No agents are installed on crane PLCs, RTGs or terminal automation systems. It enforces Zero Trust policies between network segments without touching equipment or interrupting cargo handling.
The built-in bastion host provides a controlled gateway for OEM vendors, ship crews, and logistics partners. Each session requires MFA, is scoped to specific systems, time-limited, and fully recorded. The VPN or 4G link ends at the gate, with no direct route into port OT networks.
Yes. The Access Gate enforces micro-segmentation between crane control, terminal management systems, customs IT, and corporate networks, without VLAN restructuring or infrastructure changes. Overlay networking separates zones cleanly.
The Access Gate supports IEC 62443, NIST SP 800-82, and IMO Maritime Cyber Risk Management guidelines. It generates assessment-ready documentation and provides continuous control enforcement.
Yes. The Access Gate creates encrypted overlay networks connecting all port facilities. Policy is managed centrally and enforced consistently at every terminal, berth, and yard, including remote and unmanned installations.
Maritime cybersecurity protects the OT across ports and vessels: terminal operating systems, cranes, ship-to-shore equipment, and onboard control networks. Access Gate secures them at the network layer with Zero Trust access, segmentation, and audit, supporting IMO and USCG maritime cyber rules, deployed on-premise without disrupting operations.
