Seasearcher Advanced Risk & Compliance delivers real-time AI-powered intelligence and risk analysis across multiple jurisdictional frameworks for granular visibility of potential exposure. Investigate potential illicit activity such as high-risk port callings, AIS spoofing, deviation from normal trade routes, loitering and probable dark ship to ship transfers, contextualised within voyages.

Detect AIS spoofing to stay compliant

detect-ais-spoofing

Stay ahead of deceptive shipping practices that could put your compliance position at risk, damage your reputation or worse. Seasearcher’s spoofing detection capability instantly raises the risk profile of a vessel that has transmitted false AIS data, alerting you to suspicious behaviour and ensuring you meet your compliance responsibilities quickly and easily.

What is Spoofing?

A vessel deliberately transmits false AIS data to conceal its true location

Why it matters?

Spoofing activity is increasing as bad actors attempt to circumvent sanctions and restrictions.

False AIS data signals illicit activity, raising a vessel’s risk profile.

Early detection is critical to meet compliance & and protect reputation.

Trusted & Explainable Detection

 

Combines advanced machine learning algorithms with expert maritime analysis to deliver unparalleled coverage and accuracy.

 

Complex data modelling is made simple with clear, transparent justifications for spoofing events, critical for your compliance decision making and auditing obligations.

Sophisticated Spoofing Detection Methodology

 

AIS metadata anomaly detection, and geometric pattern detection identifies impossibly unnatural movement behaviour; and location-based verification algorithms trigger when vessels' reported locations cannot be corroborated by LLI's proprietary network of AIS stations.

 

The collection of detection models, each fine-tuned to different spoofing techniques, is combined to maximise coverage and precision.

High-risk Area Coverage

 

Capturing 80% of all AIS messages and unique vessel positions globally by our extensive terrestrial network, we deliver superior accuracy in high-risk regions like the Black Sea and Persian Gulf, including Khor al Zubair, Iraq - where approximately 50% of port callings are spoofed, often by vessels with Iranian connections.

 

Customers can have a complete view on spoofing incidents in high-risk areas and vessel types to ensure they minimise exposure.
