With more technically advanced integrated and "connected" boats security becomes a major concern. Recent high profile automotive hacks have highlighted security weaknesses in some CAN based systems. The NMEA Organisation have responded to this threat by establishing a Cyber Security Working Group to identify and mitigate the risks of maritime attacks. N2K Protect is the World's first cyber security product focused on NMEA 2000 to be developed as part of this NMEA initiative.

N2K Protect is a self-contained bus powered unobtrusive black box that receives and analyses all NMEA 2000 network data. It has three key functions:

  • Test and validate the NMEA 2000 network during installation
  • Tools for NMEA 2000 configuration and network monitoring/analysis
  • On going 24/7 monitoring and protection for the life of the vessel

Installation Tests and Canshot

N2K Protect carries out the following device certification network topography and general tests:

Certified Devices - This test interrogates all devices on the network and checks if they are listed in the NMEA 2000 Certified Product database. Un-Certified devices will be identified as they represent a possible cause of network errors and interoperability issues. The identified devices can continue to be used on the network but it is recommended that special care is taken to ensure that they are operating correctly and not causing network issues.

Name Verification - This test scans the NMEA Name (64 bit binary number) of each device on the network and will report any non-standard or rogue NMEA names that might indicate a malicious device. Any devices reported should be immediately investigated and removed from the network.

Gateway Validation - Gateways are potentially a weak point in an NMEA 2000 network and can allow hackers to inject malicious data or control a network. For this reason N2K Protect can identify and validate any NMEA 2000 Gateway in the system.

Duplicate Device Instances - Multiple devices on the network sharing the same class and function codes and the same device instance can cause issues with data source identification and could be used to inject spoof data on to the network. This test will identify any duplications and the Instance Configuration Tool can be used to give a duplicate device a unique device instance.

Duplicate PGNs - Multiple devices outputting duplicate PGNs can cause issues with data source selection and result in some devices showing wrong or no data. This test will identify any duplicate PGNs and the Commanded Address Change Tool can be used to change a device's CAN address reducing or increasing its priority.

Data Sources - This test in conjunction with the other Network Topography tests can be used to identify which devices will be automatically selected as the primary data source for GNSS depth wind boat speed and heading. Based on the PGNs they output and their CAN Address N2K Protect will identify the devices that are the primary data sources and the Commanded Address Change Tool can be used to change which device is the primary data source.

Devices Outputting "No Data" - This test checks all of the devices that are outputting navigational PGNs with "No Data" in the key field i.e. transmitting a Depth PGN with the depth field showing "No Data" If a higher priority device is outputting "ËœNo Data' it can result in the data from the device you want to use not being displayed.

Product Firmware Audit - This test will query every device on the network and create a simple list of the Firmware Version reported in each device's Product Info PGN. This is useful for checking that all devices on the network are fully up to date or if a firmware update has been done and caused problems since the current CANshot was taken.

Total LEN - This test queries the LEN value of all devices on the network and calculates the total LEN value for the network. This can be useful in ensuring the network is properly designed and constructed and will not suffer from voltage drops or data corruption.

Once the installation tests are complete and the installer is happy with network performance the CANshot option is run. This "snapshots" the network and stores the results internally. This report can also be saved and printed. N2K Protect then enters 24/7 monitor mode and will alert audibly and also store alerts in an event log for analysis. If connected to a Digital Yacht 4GX or 5GX system optional SMS alerts can be enabled for remote monitoring.

24/7 Monitoring

N2K Protect continuously monitors your NMEA 2000 network. A new device change to existing device or strange network behaviour will trigger N2K Protect to take action. Depending on threat level this could be a pop-up warning transmission of an NMEA 2000 Alert PGN sounding its internal buzzer or even an SMS message to designated mobile phone via our 4Gx/5GX systems. The last 16 events are stored in a Network Events Log.

Configuration and Data Tools

N2K Protect also features the following configuration and data analysis tools:

Configuration Info Programming - Allows you to change the Configuration Info text in any of the devices. Not all devices support this function but it has now been mandated in the N2K specification so will become increasingly important.

Instance Configuration - Changes the Device Instance of an N2K device Not all devices support this but most engine gateways and devices that use instances do.

Commanded Address Change - Allows you to change the address of a device and all devices should support this to meet certification standards

Network Device List - Shows a list of devices on the network with address manufacturer name CAN name class and function

PGN List - Shows time stamped PGN number and source description with drill down data

Data Logging - Create and save a full data log of raw binary data

Top Notch!
Format: Hardcover
A lot of the time when your reading SW books your imagination doesn't quite fill in the gaps that the author leaves. A lot of SW books have little to no detail because they are movie or game based. This is where the top notch illiustrations took this story line to a whole new level! Richardson does a great job on developping the main character. I was very impressed with the quality of the story and blown away with the illustrations. Great read for all!

Great saga!
Format: Kindle
I love this series! It is beautifully painted, has good dialogue, and has a very compelling narrative. I cannot help but like the protagonist, Kir Kanos. He is brave, unselfish, noble, determined, and deadly. Even if his primary goal is to exact vengeance for the killing of the truly evil Palpatine, I cannot help but cheer for him. This is truly a compelling read that refuses to be put down.

Just an OK read
Format: Kindle
I was not aware when I purchased this that it was a Graphic Novel, I really wish that in the blurb about these products it was made very clear that you are buying a Graphic Novel. I like reading, not viewing the written word. Since I got this via Kindle there was no shipping issues. Maybe the Graphic Novels should have their own category, so that we don't end up with things we don't want.

"Thus die all traitors."
Format: Hardcover
At a grand 504 pages, this big book covers the Crimson Empire series in its entirety. Containing the first, second, and third mini-series as well as Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil, Dark Horse Extra #21-24 "Hard Currency", and Dark Horse Presents #1 "Third Time Pays for All". While some of these stories truly pale in comparison to the original series, they all still form a big story that is collected in this book. Slightly smaller than a regular TPB, this hardcover edition looks nice with a dustjacket (although mine was very off-center) but utilizes a glued binding on this thick book so you lose a bit to gutter loss. The first story in the book is the classic Crimson Empire series. The six-issue series is collected here in full with a truly timeless story by Randy Stradley and Mike Richardson. Paul Gulacy did the awesome art within the issues. The writing and art work well together with the vibration of the blades to the movie-like, choreographed 12-page fight scene between Kanos and Jax at the end. A truly epic tale with lots of action and mystery that made you feel like you were watching another Star Wars movie but condensed into six issues of a comic book! This alone is worth the purchase price but you get even more stories after this! Bounty Hunters: Kenix Kil follows the Crimson Empire in a tale following Kir Kanos after the end of the Crimson Empire series and was the third issue in the Bounty Hunters series. Kir becomes the bounty hunter Kenix Kil to move through a bounty hunter-filled planet and get what he needs and get out alive! Javier Saltares did the penciling while Randy Stradley reprised his role for the story. The story's short but tells a bit more about Kir and his journey. The drawings, while not as good as the first series, look good enough to get the story across. Crimson Empire II: Council of Blood is next directly following the first series as Kir Kanos, as Kenix Kil, continues his quest to destroy what's left of the traitorous Imperial leaders. However, the return of an old friend side-tracks his quest and brings him to an even bigger journey! The old writing team of Mike Richardson and Randy Stradley return in this story as well as the original artist Paul Gulacy. The art's great and the story, though a bit dense, works well. There isn't quite as much action this time around but the story's just as good. The Zanzibar creatures are one of the creepiest things you'll ever see in a Star Wars comic, too! Next up is the very short four-part comic entitled Hard Currency that appeared in Dark Horse Extra #21-24. The comic is written by Randy Stradley so you know the writing's done well but the art is by Isaas Buckminister Owens and is one God-awful mess. The characters are horribly out of proportion and it looks extremely cartoony. It's very, very short with only a few pages but even if you get past the art, the comic reads like a calendar with the book turned on its side. So, the whole process of reading this out of a 500+ page book is just annoying. I know they probably couldn't print it any other way but it's still inconvenient. However, what you get is a neat story wrapping up the fate of a character that has ran through the first two series and a bit more about Kir's alter ego Kenix Kil. Unlisted, the book appears to start with the third main series but actually contains an 8-page prequel comic that originally appeared in Dark Horse Presents #1 entitled The Third Time Pays for All. The writing has Randy Stradley again and, thankfully, Paul Gulacy on art duty (although his other works here were better). Once again, a short glimpse into the life of (a newly outfitted) Kenix Kil on a bounty-hunting mission while he reminisces about his past run-ins with Mirith Sinn. Mike, Randy and Paul continue their work with the Crimson Empire III: Empire Lost where Kir Kanos rejoins Mirith Sinn one last time to thwart an Imperial thug from destroying the New Republic and the New Empire in one fell swoop! Leia, Luke, Han, and Chewie appear in this tale as well as Boba Fett to round out a classic cast. The art's great, once again, and the writing, while probably my least favorite of the series, is still pretty good with an epic fight between Kir and Devian. At the end of the book, we get the Crimson Empire Handbook entries on some of the characters as well as a few more covers to gawk at. While this hardcover book looks really nice, Dark Horse still fails to make a truly great edition for this series through the book itself. The contents are great but the small size and lack of comic covers are disappointing. Sadly, that's just how Dark Horse releases their hardcovers and TPBs. But, if you're looking to read the Crimson Empire books, this is the one to get!
