Marlink, a leader in managed services for business-critical IT solutions, will upgrade the hybrid network onboard the fleet of Alpha Adriatic, including cutting edge cyber security tools.


Alpha Adriatic will benefit from Sealink NextGen’s combination of VSAT and LEO internet, together with robust back-up and Marlink’s Advanced Threat Detection, Unified Threat Management and Endpoint Detection cyber tools.


Marlink will once again leverage its experience as a managed services provider to upgrade the hybrid network solution onboard, integrating Starlink to enhance options available for business applications and improving connectivity available to crews.


The solution provides Alpha Adriatic with several benefits, including:


  • High bandwidth, low latency communications via Sealink NextGen to support smarter, digitalised fleet operations;

  • Enhanced cyber security to provide compliance with industry certification standards and reflect tighter regulation for vessel operators;

  • Hybrid solution offers improved uptime and reliability with secure communications and data transfer;


Headquartered in Pula, Croatia, and listed on the Zagreb Stock Exchange, Alpha Adriatic operates in the dry bulk and tanker sectors, offering full ship management services to third parties. The Group holds ownership interests in one oil/chemical tanker and three bulk carriers, while also providing third-party ship management services for an additional bulk carrier and three oil/chemical tankers.


“Alpha Adriatic is committed to being a modern and innovative company, focused on the high-quality growth of its fleet and the enhancement of services provided to our partners and clients,” said Vojko Braut, Technical Director at Alpha Adriatic. “We rely on the extensive knowledge, experience, and adaptability of our teams both onboard and ashore to ensure safe, efficient, and sustainable operations.”


“Marlink added to its cyber capabilities in 2024 with the acquisition of Croatia’s Diverto and then Port-IT, to enhance the breadth of cyber solutions available to remote maritime users,” said Tore Morten Olsen, President, Maritime, Marlink. “By combining this expertise with a hybrid network solution we can deliver smarter vessel operations to Alpha Adriatic.”
