The US Coast Guard issued a Marine Safety Information Bulletin (MSIB 19-20) to highlight several recent cyber events involving increasingly sophisticated malicious email spoofing techniques within the Marine Transportation System (MTS). The types of reported spoofing attacks included impersonating Coast Guard (uscg.mil) email addresses, and Coast Guard industry communications regarding Area Maritime Security Committee meetings. Computer users should be alert to suspicious emails and report suspected incident.
