Protecting continuity

Three-way protection for Van der Most

For a deep-sea container carrier like Van der Most, the biggest concern for a transporter is business continuity – but every container represents value that makes them a prime target for cyber attack. With so much at stake, system security has to be better than ever at detecting anomalies and preventing operations from coming to a halt.

So Van der Most started looking for a suitable security solution together with his external IT supplier. “We came into contact with our broker,” says founder Gertjan van der Most, “and they advised us to contact Eye Security.”

A strong partnership between the three has helped build the company’s cyber resilience, including securing every access point to proactively protect against attacks. Van der Most’s systems are monitored day and night, with anomalies detected at lightning speed, while ongoing phishing tests keep employees vigilant – providing vital safeguarding for its customers and containers.
