Security risk and threat webinars
WEBINAR SERIES:
Evolving threats in a shifting world
In this webinar series, our specialists will explore the most current and emerging threats shaping the maritime security environment. From hybrid tactics linked to geopolitical rivalries to piracy, smuggling and the use of advanced technologies, the risks facing merchant shipping, ports, terminals, and offshore infrastructure continue to evolve rapidly.
Drawing on incidents and intelligence, the series will highlight the most pressing security concerns across critical global trade routes. We will examine how geopolitical dynamics, regional conflicts, and shifting criminal patterns influence maritime risks and impact commercial operations on both regional and global scales. With security challenges constantly adapting to new political, technological, and criminal realities, the need for continuous vigilance and timely insights has never been greater.
The series begins with a global overview of maritime security-related hotspots. The second session will then provide a vital link to land-based threats and specific security challenges for this part of regional and global supply chains. This will be followed by deep dives into specific areas of interest, namely critical maritime infrastructure, developments across the Middle East as well as the impact of new types of security challenges on the maritime insurance market.

Maritime security in 2026 – an increasingly risky environment
How can we stay on top of constantly changing threats and concerns?
Maritime security is becoming increasingly complex. Threats to commercial shipping have evolved and include a broad variety of issues, ranging from piracy to drug smuggling, from attacks by insurgent groups to jamming and spoofing of navigation system by state actors. In short, commercial shipping faces more and more challenges.
Europe’s Supply Chain Security in 2025 and Beyond
What patterns and threats observed in 2025 will shape European supply chain security in 2026?
Join us for our yearly Annual Figures webinar as we reflect on the supply chain security trends and patterns observed across Europe in 2025.
Our team will look beyond the numbers and discuss how the challenges of the past year are set to influence the security landscape in 2026. From the latest findings on cargo crime and the ever-rising influence of organised criminal groups on logistics operations to the far-reaching effects of geopolitical shifts on European supply chain operations, this webinar aims to offer forward-looking analyses to help businesses and logistics operators anticipate and prepare for emerging risks in the coming year.
The volatile Middle East – analysing maritime impacts
What are the maritime repercussions of conflicts across the Middle East?
Over the past two years, the Middle East has experienced a turbulent time. The regional and international repercussions of a changing political and security environment are significant. For commercial maritime operations, this may have significant implications, especially in the longer term. The Persian Gulf, the Red Sea and, to a lesser degree, the eastern Mediterranean may be exposed to direct or indirect threats from regional actors.
Navigating security risks in Latin America
What are the impacts of organised criminal activities on commercial shipping?
Organised crime and illicit activities in Latin America pose a broad variety of challenges and impact the security of commercial operations. This webinar will examine how drug trafficking, cargo theft, corruption and other criminal activities may elevate risks for businesses. Learn more about regional hotspots, evolving tactics, and practical strategies to safeguard operations in this dynamic environment which has also been affected by broader geopolitical issues in recent months.
Maritime security in the Black Sea – strategic shifts and war-time dynamics
How does the war in Ukraine reshape the maritime landscape of the Black Sea?
The Russia-Ukraine war has transformed the Black Sea into one of the most volatile and strategically contested regions in the world. The disruption of commercial shipping, the fluctuating control of sea lanes, and the militarisation of coastal infrastructure are redefining both regional and global maritime security. This webinar examines the evolving operational risks in the Black Sea and the changing balance of power across the region’s maritime environment.
GNSS jamming and spoofing – growing concern for maritime operations
How are emerging security threats reshaping risk management and insurance in global shipping?
Jamming and spoofing of navigational systems has become a major concern for merchant ships. In some cases, ships are targeted directly, in other cases seafarers have to deal with the fallout from land-based conflicts. In this webinar, Søren Reime Larsen will explain the technical details of how Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) can be disrupted and whether there are feasible countermeasures for commercial vessels.
