An anonymous cyber-crime reporting site for the maritime industry will go live in October, with aircraft giant Airbus operating the website for the CSO Alliance.

The European aircraft manufacturer will run the site, developed by the alliance for company shipping security officers, ensuring it has state-of-the-art cyber-security and can cope with the demands on it.

The portal will provide alliance members with cyber-security information, news of incidents and advice on how to handle them, plus live data.
