This session provides an overview of the U.S. Coast Guard’s new Cybersecurity in the Marine Transportation System rule and what it means for regulated waterfront facilities and vessel operators. The session will cover the rule’s scope, core requirements, and how it fits within the Coast Guard’s existing maritime security framework.
The program will also feature a discussion with a representative from U.S. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston, providing insight into how the rule is being implemented within the Sector Houston-Galveston Captain of the Port Zone. Topics will include inspection focus areas, compliance expectations, and what Industry can anticipate as implementation progresses.
