Ports and harbours are vital national assets that support global trade, energy security, and economic resilience. They are also complex, high-density environments exposed to threats ranging from unauthorized access and insider activity to smuggling, sabotage, and asymmetric attacks.

Modern ports face a unique convergence of risks:

Continuous awareness of all compliant and non-compliant maritime movements.

OCIANA®: Designed for coastal and port security

GSTS’s OCIANA® platform enhances port and coastal security by fusing real-time data, predictive AI, and anomaly detection for context-aware maritime awareness. It helps stakeholders identify, assess, and mitigate threats before escalation — safeguarding people, infrastructure, and trade.

Data fusion for position monitoring

Integrate AIS, SAT-AIS, radar, and satellite imagery. Combine SAR/optical data with AIS to flag unreported or suspicious vessel positions near ports.

Comprehensive port visit history

Tracks vessel histories and recent port calls to assess risk and anticipate possible illicit behaviour.

Dark vessel detection, spoofing detection

Identify vessels that have turned off or manipulated their AIS signals to reveal “silent” ships.

Analyse vessel identity, specs, and trajectory

Detect misrepresented or spoofed identity and intent.

Streamline verification of vessel credentials

Spotlight expired or incomplete documentation that may signal risk.

Anomaly 
detection

Identify deviations such as unexpected turns, erratic movement, or unauthorized zone entry that may indicate smuggling, piracy, or intrusion.

Custom
risk reporting

Generate detailed reports that explain why a vessel was flagged, helping security teams make informed, defensible decisions.

Intelligent
geofencing with alerts

Automatic alerts when vessels enter, exit, or deviate from user-defined geographic zones (ports, EEZ boundaries, restricted areas).
