The Gulf of Mexico Maritime Security Committee recently held its annual security exercise in Kenner, Louisiana. The tabletop exercise gave participants the opportunity to discuss the capabilities, resources and procedures required to respond to cybersecurity threat scenarios that may occur during operations in the Gulf of Mexico Outer Continental Shelf. ADM John Nadeau, 8th District Commander, kicked off the event by addressing a need for participants to remain persistent in continuing to develop collaborative efforts to address the breadth of cyber concerns.
