Update: 2025-09-29
Description
In this episode of the ShorelineHudson Maritime Risk Podcast, Captain Thomas Brown sits down with Hila Sasson, Director of Product Marketing at Windward, to discuss one of the most pressing and least understood risks facing global shipping today: GNSS jamming and AIS spoofing.
From phantom port calls and vessels “sailing on land” to entire fleets suddenly losing navigational capability in conflict zones, these invisible threats are already disrupting trade, complicating compliance, and raising the stakes for shipowners worldwide.
Listeners will gain:
- A clear understanding of the difference between GNSS manipulation, GPS jamming and AIS spoofing.
- Real-world insights into how spoofing patterns correlate with geopolitical tensions in hotspots like the Black Sea, Arabian Gulf, and Mediterranean.
- Practical steps shipowners and operators can take to protect their fleets and reputations.
Whether you’re a shipowner, broker, insurer, or maritime risk professional, this conversation will help you see through the fog of modern navigation risks.
