Hack The Port 2022 is a competition sponsored by U.S. Cyber Command, the NSA, and the Maryland Innovation & Security Institute (MISI), that simulated a real-world attempt to compromise the security of a functional maritime port in the United States.

SCADAfence was one of the competition’s “blue teams” who acted as defenders of the port against the “red teams” who were invited to attempt to compromise the port’s technological security infrastructure.

This white paper gives an overview of the competition, and details the success of SCADAfence in successfully defending the port against the attacks.
