The Swedish Club to partner with CyberOwl and DNV Cyber

The Swedish Club has entered into a co-operation agreement with CyberOwl and DNV Cyber aimed at strengthening cyber resilience and operational awareness across its membership.

As part of the collaboration, the maritime insurer will provide members with regular cyber threat insights and risk updates. The initiative is designed to complement the existing marine cyber insurance offering from The Swedish Club with a focus on proactive risk prevention and operational resilience.

The quarterly updates will provide information on emerging cyber threats and trends affecting shipping, alongside vulnerabilities and attack methods relevant to maritime operations. Additionally, the regular briefings will cover lessons learned from incidents and market developments, providing practical guidance to support cyber resilience and readiness.

“Cyber risk is increasingly becoming an operational challenge for shipping, not just a technical issue,” said Tord Nilsson, who played a key role in the development of the cyber insurance product at The Swedish Club.

“The industry’s growing dependence on digital systems means that cyber incidents have the potential to affect vessel operations, safety, and continuity in entirely new ways.”

“By working together with CyberOwl and DNV Cyber, we are strengthening the support and insight available to our members as they navigate an increasingly complex risk environment. This initiative is about helping members improve awareness, preparedness, and resilience through practical and relevant information.”
