IACS UR E26 and E27 Regulations

IACS UR E26 “Cyber resilience of ships” focuses on the cyber resilience of ships, ensuring secure integration of IT and OT systems throughout a vessel’s lifecycle.

IACS UR E27 “Cyber resilience of on-board systems and equipment” defines cybersecurity requirements for on-board systems and equipment individually.

Both regulations are mandatory for newly-contracted vessels on or after 1st July, 2024, and are designed to strengthen maritime cybersecurity across the industry.

It is one of DNV’s cyber secure type approvals which certifies adequate security level of applicable products to meet the requirements specified in IACS UR E27.
