According to International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) Unified Requirement (UR) E26, ships contracted for construction after July 1, 2024 should be designed, constructed, commissioned and operated taking into account of cyber security. In particular, ship network monitoring tools should be installed in accordance with requirement 4.3.1 in IACS UR E26. In this paper, we propose a Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) security policy model for ships as an effective threat detection method by analyzing the cyber security regulations and ship network status in the maritime domain. For this purpose, we derived the items managed in the SIEM from the maritime cyber security regulations such as those of International Maritime Organization (IMO) and IACS, and defined 14 detection policies considering the status of the ship network. We also presents the detection policy for non-expert crews to understand it, and occurrence conditions depending on the ship"s network environment to minimize indiscriminate alarms. We expect that the results of this study will help improve the efficiency of ship SIEM to be installed in the future.
