Network Segmentation
Welcome to the Network Segmentation Playbook on TAGSIA. This section is your authoritative, vendor-neutral guide to designing and implementing secure digital boundaries onboard your vessel.
In the complex environment of a mixed-age fleet, Network Segmentation is the single most critical security control you can deploy. It’s the digital equivalent of watertight bulkheads: it ensures that a breach in a less-secure zone (like crew IT) cannot immediately spread to disable or compromise safety-critical systems (like navigation or propulsion control).
This section moves beyond theory to provide pragmatic, ship-specific implementation patterns aligned with global maritime regulations and standards.

What You Will Find Here
The Network Segmentation Playbook is dedicated to helping Superintendents, ETOs, and CSOs achieve effective isolation using existing or cost-effective hardware.
