BIMCO Cyber Security BIMCO-10.3: Recovery plan

Keep hard-copy recovery plans aboard and ashore for those handling cyber incidents, as part of the business continuity plan, prioritising the ship's operation and navigation, scaled to ship type and systems. Weigh recovery steps such as wiping drives against loss of evidence and use professional help to preserve it. Software backups aboard or ashore support IT recovery, with offline backups considered because ransomware and worms reach backup devices; OT recovery may need shore help, so the plan should say where and from whom (for example a service engineer at the next port). Response, contingency and continuity plans should complement each other, and ship-to-shore recovery should be tested often.
