Alpha Adriatic upgrades comms with Marlink

Croatian shipowner Alpha Adriatic has agreed a deal to upgrade its fleet connectivity with the integration of LEO satellite internet and a range of new cybersecurity tools.

The system will be provided by Marlink, delivering a hybrid network that will combine VSAT and Starlink services as well as Advanced Threat Detection, Unified Threat Management, and Endpoint Detection.

Alpha Adriatic, listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange, operates in the dry bulk and tanker sectors. It owns one oil/chemical tanker and three bulk carriers while also providing third-party management for an additional bulk carrier and three oil/chemical tankers.

“Alpha Adriatic is committed to modernising its fleet and enhancing services for our partners and clients,” said Vojko Braut, Technical Director, Alpha Adriatic.

“We rely on the knowledge and adaptability of our teams both onboard and ashore to ensure safe, efficient, and sustainable operations.”

Marlink has recently expanded its cybersecurity capabilities, with the 2024 acquisitions of Croatia’s Diverto and Port-IT.
