ZDIGN2KPROT - Digital Yacht N2K Protect: Advanced NMEA 2000 Cyber Security Device

N2K Protect: Advanced NMEA 2000 Cyber Security Device

The increasing sophistication of connected boats raises significant security concerns. High-profile automotive hacks have illustrated vulnerabilities in CAN-based systems; hence, maritime cybersecurity is crucial.

In response to this, the NMEA Organisation established a Cyber Security Working Group to tackle and mitigate potential threats in marine technology.

N2K Protect is the world's first dedicated cyber security solution for NMEA 2000 networks, developed under this initiative.

This self-contained, unobtrusive black box, powered by the network itself, continuously analyzes and safeguards all data within the NMEA 2000 network.

The Digital Yacht N2K Protect is a dedicated cybersecurity device designed for NMEA 2000 networks. This self-contained unit addresses the growing security concerns in connected marine systems by continuously analyzing and safeguarding network data. It is intended for IT professionals and system integrators managing marine electronics, providing a proactive solution to potential vulnerabilities in CAN-based systems. The device, identified by part number ZDIGN2KPROT, powers directly from the NMEA 2000 network and operates as an unobtrusive black box. It offers continuous monitoring, network validation during installation, and configuration options for other NMEA 2000 devices. With a built-in WiFi antenna and a web interface, users can access detailed network data, device displays, and PGN logs, enhancing network oversight and security management.
