Case Study
Dark ships move Russian oil,
insurance companies at risk
The threat of dark ships is growing. Automatic Identification System (AIS), the most prevalent means for tracking ships isn't necessarily reliable. It relies on ships to broadcast information, but what's the guarantee that ships don't turn it off entirely, or even worse, spoof their location?
This was the exact modus operandi for a dark fleet which was transporting Russian oil illegally, while spoofing their location. All while covered by insurers based in US who were now at risk.
