The next era in the maritime and defense industry will present business and technology challenges that will be radically different from anything seen before. The exponential rate of innovation required to meet these challenges can only be achieved through digital transformation. As the boundaries between industries blur and the cost of failure becomes business-critical, the pace of digital transformation must accelerate. One way to speed this transformation while ensuring an optimized product life cycle is through engineering simulation.

Technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous systems and quantum technologies are changing the world, and the way NATO operates. These and other emerging and disruptive technologies (EDTs) present both risks and opportunities for NATO and Allies. That’s why the Alliance is working with public and private sector partners, academia and civil society to develop and adopt new technologies, establish international principles of responsible use and maintain NATO’s technological edge. In this context, NATO has launched two initiatives (DIANA and NIF) to foster innovation and EDTs. The aim of this workshop is informing and promoting DIANA and the NIF within the International Delegations and the community of entrepreneurs, SME’s, start-ups, universities, research institutes, technology cluster associations and institutions dealing with the naval and underwater sectors.

Anatomy of a cyber attack: We will analyze a malware attack through a phishing email and talk about Protection and training tools, the keys to success in cybersecurity.
Financial crimes: In addition to cyber attacks that impact the security of data, there are attacks aimed at defrauding companies with very sophisticated mechanisms that can reduce their financial solidity. “Business Email Compromised” attacks are the most dangerous because they take advantage of social engineering techniques. The main protection tool is the awareness.

The Earth is an ocean planet—more than 70 percent of the surface is covered by seawater. But despite being such an essential part of life, the deepest parts of the world’s oceans are still largely unexplored. According to the GEBCO, merely 25 percent of the seafloor has been mapped with accuracy and less than 18 percent in the Arctic. But the state of sea exploration is changing fast. The dark, high-pressure conditions of the ocean depths that once made research there impossible are now being explored with cutting-edge technology. That new tech and the discoveries to come from it are the focus of modern Ocean Mapping.

After last year’s NATO Summit in June, marked by the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, in the document known as the Strategic Concept - an act that ratifies NATO’s new posture with respect to future threats - we understand how the alarm of political decision-makers of the member countries of the Alliance is above all related to the new frontiers of conflicts which, among other priorities, sees an emphasis placed on the growing interweaving between the cyber and space dimensions. The European Commission and the High Representative recently adopted a Joint Communication on an enhanced EU maritime security strategy aimed at ensuring peaceful use of the seas and protecting the maritime sector from new threats. They also adopted an updated action plan that will implement the strategy. Up to 99% of global data flows are transmitted through submarine cables, which are also subject to cyber and hybrid attacks. It is mandatory to make the Underwater Domain even more secure from a cybernetic point of view. The maritime safety is of vital importance for the European Union and its Member States and, precisely in this sense, the European Commission and the High Representative Borrell have foreseen an updated action plan which will implement the strategy. .

The Project aims at creating the 1st Eurocluster of Excellence on Naval Defense. This will be obtained following an Action Plan on three steps:
1) Obtain a mapping of the Naval & Aero Naval Defence sector value chain post COVID-19 crisis to better understand the European ecosystem’s structure as well as the possible transnational synergies and complementarities. This will allow the Consortium to draw the lessons concerning disruption and dependencies and manage a more efficient industrial strategy (including green and digital transition) to engage better resilience and competitiveness in a long-term European strategic approach.
2) Put in place actions to support SMEs in their up-skilling towards strategic technologies innovations that will be the base of their path towards resilience and autonomy boosting European sovereignty in Defence sector. Support measures will be for example training workshops and vouchers.
3) Go to international is the third step providing for other supporting measures (e.g. workshops, vouchers, studies of international markets) to help SMEs to acquire skills in some third countries markets as well as internationalisation to foster synergies and new business lines towards these non-EU countries. This will foster action plans to enhance the European position in the value chain and engage resilience activities by supporting innovation processes and helping SMEs join forces and better cooperate with major public and private groups including in European and within international markets. These plans would have a strong focus on resilience and European synergies.

Limescale and biofilm have always been a problem in all circuits in which water circulates, greatly reducing their flow rates and consequently their efficiency. The concretions themselves form a favorable environment for the proliferation of potentially pathogenic microorganisms for users. In the military, this issue takes on even greater significance and is closely linked to the operation of the maritime military instrument. The problem is amplified when maintenance of the system/equipment has to be carried out resulting in long technical downtime and consequent suspension of service. The timeless and effectiveness of interventions are, therefore, decisive in the overall economy of plant management. The Noname® system, which uses a food-grade purity gas mixture, promises to eliminate calcareous concretions and biofilms, eliminating failure times and ptimizing shipboard systems. The conference will showcase the results of AUTNONAME project experiments conducted at the University of Genoa, the use of the gas mixture, and the remotely developed continous control system.

Do we want to continue to exploit the sea or do we finally decide to safeguard the sea and ourselves? Everyday Sea Shepherd volunteers goes to the sea to defend its inhabitants and what do we want to do? Looking back in our history there have been tragic pages where people have chosen to become partisans to gain freedom. Today it is up to us to become fighters, partisans to save our species from absurd logics that exploit the planet. So it’s up to us to pick a side. Collaboration between police forces and civil society, the great challenge of the new anti-poaching in the Sea

Starting from the assumption that the state of health of the Oceans is determined by the decisions that are taken on earth, especially in relation to the fact that, as authoritatively supported by the Scientific Community, we live in an unprecedented era defined “Anthropocene”, a paradigm shift is needed to put the sea at the center of our lives. The relationship between mankind and the sea can be interpreted in all respects as a New Frontier. The seas, even within the specific and dimensional differences that distinguish them, are fundamental elements, for example, in the formation of the climate, and therefore the study of the so-called “Climate-Ocean Nexus”. It is now of fundamental importance to try to understand the variables that characterize the phenomenon of Climate Change.

The next era in the maritime and defense industry will present business and technology challenges that will be radically different from anything seen before. The exponential rate of innovation required to meet these challenges can only be achieved through digital transformation. As the boundaries between industries blur and the cost of failure becomes business-critical, the pace of digital transformation must accelerate. One way to speed this transformation while ensuring an optimized product life cycle is through engineering simulation.
