How It Works

How MarinaShield works

Every part of vendor screening flows through one buyer-side loop, from baseline to screening to response.

01

Assess your current stack

Map the maritime software vendors already inside your environment and identify where screening starts.

02

Screen every new vendor

Before onboarding or renewal, review each vendor through a buyer-side lens that goes beyond forms.

03

Respond when exposure is identified

When exposure is confirmed, package the evidence, urgency, and action path needed for leadership to move quickly.

Preview

See the response brief before exposure turns commercial.

One controlled buyer-side brief keeps leadership, procurement, and vendor management on the same page when exposure is confirmed.

FAQ

Common questions from shipping companies

The public posture stays controlled and buyer-side, so the common questions are about scope, fit, and screening posture.

Do you test our vendors directly?

MarinaShield focuses on buyer-side risk screening and exposure assessment. Depending on the engagement, that can include direct validation work, but the public offer is framed around helping the shipping company understand vendor-borne risk rather than publishing adversarial findings.

Is this only for new vendors?

No. The highest-value starting point is often the software stack you already depend on today, especially where renewals are approaching or where operational dependency is concentrated.

How is this different from a questionnaire or normal pentest?

Questionnaires reflect what a vendor says about itself. A normal pentest usually focuses on a single environment. MarinaShield is built around buyer-side maritime software supply chain risk and downstream exposure signals that traditional processes often miss.
