During the minor, you might be working on one of the existing projects of the professorship, from building a database of all maritime cyber incidents, setting up a maritime technology hacking lab, working on a maritime honeynet to using tabletop exercises and cyber incident simulations to train crew and management to be more aware on the dangers of cyber security.
