Summary/Abstract: Naval security in a war of any kind - and even more so in a hybrid war that comes out of the limits of any symmetry, dissymmetry and even asymmetry, and acquires extremely powerful and sophisticated valences in all confrontational environments, including the environment cyber and cognospathies - becomes vital not only for the naval action itself in the march, stationary or confrontation area, but in everything and everything related to the ship's operational and vitality, for the proper functioning of the equipment and the actual fulfillment of the missions, in the information space, command - control and combat platforms. The cyber security of a ship must be continuous, sufficient, complete, flexible, consistent with the cyber security of all the actors in the theater, active, imaginative, omnidirectional and continually adaptable to any situation, but especially capable of overtaking, pre-emption and prediction. Cyber security is not only a security component between others, is integrate, network based, fast and defining one. That is why its configuration, planning and assurance are related to the cyber vitality of all combat units, to the continuous cooperation, to the rapid action and reaction of all systems, to the multiplication of the unpredictable variables and the fluid risk. In the following, we will highlight our concerns in this regard.
