Marlow Navigation is a leading global ship and crew management company, headquartered in Limassol. They have been providing comprehensive maritime solutions for over 40 years, including crew recruitment, training, and full technical management.
Managing more than 1,000 diverse vessels worldwide, they require fast and secure data transfers between ship and shore daily. Since Marlow demands high standards for security and efficiency for all services they integrate into their fleet’s IT ecosystem, they focused on optimising data transfer methods.
Cybersecurity for all components of the fleet’s IT as standard
Manos Manoli, Chief Information Security Officer at Marlow Navigation, explains:
“At Marlow, we demand high cybersecurity standards for all components in our fleet IT infrastructure. Regarding data exchange, we wanted a file transfer service that is as secure as possible. One of our key requirements was that files should be checked before they reach the endpoint. This way, we ensure an additional security layer for both our onboard and onshore environment.”
Our data exchange service Dualog Drive allowed Marlow to move and synchronise files automatically between their ships and office. A built-in malware scanning option added an extra layer of security to their systems. Now, all files sent from an office or a ship without manual work and are scanned in the cloud for malware before reaching their destination.

Ensuring an additional security layer for the vessel’s endpoints
Kyriakos Papapolydorou, Regional Manager at Dualog, adds:
“Marlow’s fleet exchanges thousands of files every month. For us, it’s crucial that their crew onboard can send and receive data without manual work or errors. At the same time, keeping all vessel devices secure is a top priority. Dualog Drive enables seamless data exchange, and its scanning function gives Marlow the extra layer of protection they need to safeguard their endpoints.”
With Dualog Drive and its malware scanner, Marlow can confidently transfer any number of files to or from ships, knowing that they are delivered without delays and thoroughly checked for security threats.
