How to accurately detect AIS Spoofing in Seasearcher

Driven by a 50% rise in spoofing cases in the past year, as more vessels look to circumvent Russian oil price restrictions and other sanctions, Lloyd’s List Intelligence have introduced a ground-breaking methodology to the maritime industry to help you accurately detect spoofing for all major vessel types, globally.

Spoofing describes an event when a vessel deliberately transmits false AIS data to conceal its true location, and possible illicit activity.

For many screening professionals it has been extremely difficult thus far to reliably identify spoofing – their manual, time-consuming processes are riddled with uncertainties and unknowns.

Our innovative AI-based methodology changes that. Our machine-learning modelling detects patterns where a vessel may be deliberately spoofing their AIS message. Uniquely, they are then verified using our vast AIS proprietary network to understand the vessel's true location.

Using Seasearcher to detect spoofing will help you:

• Enhance your screening processes and protect your compliance position, potentially saving you money by avoiding fines, legal fees and regulatory penalties.
• Save valuable time by using AI-driven data to immediately get to the truth and identify spoofing in real-time, as opposed to manual investigations.
• Reduce your false positives.
