Global maritime trade expanded at a slower pace in 2018, while volumes reached 11 billion tons. Reflecting developments in the world economy and trade activity, international maritime trade lost momentum in 2018. Volumes expanded at 2.7 per cent in 2018, down from 4.1 per cent in 2017. The slowdown was broadbased and affected nearly all maritime cargo segments. It undermined global port cargo-handling activities, and growth in containerized global port throughput decelerated to 4.7 per cent, down from 6.7 per cent in 2017.

Information technology is creating a more connected world, and our dependence on technology for all aspects of our lives continues to increase. However, the advanced technology and sophisticated logistics networks that support this connectivity are facing unprecedented attacks, which risk undermining the trust on which growth, prosperity, and international relations rest. Complicating matters further, the complexity, sophistication and potential impact of attacks also have increased substantially over time.

As Public Transportation Authorities and Agencies continue to innovate and transform the o erings and services that they provide their users via multiple channels to keep pace with external pressures of alternative transportation methods like Uber & Lyft and autonomous vehicles, the same must go for their underlying technology systems. Transit Executives are looking to change business models and embrace new technologies to compete and improve and streamline the user experience. The Public Transportation sector must continue to secure and attain government funding to support the acquisition of innovative technology o erings, and, most importantly, continue to optimize, and streamline their current business operations to stay lean and e ective while innovating

Since the world’s port community gathered at the IAPH 2022 Conference in Vancouver last May, our technical committees have continued working on their extensive programs with the aim of closing the gaps of port competitiveness in terms of both physical and digital infrastructure. Alongside our core themes of climate and energy, data collaboration and risk and resilience, the fourth major conference theme focused on business innovation. Innovation crosses the boundaries of all our three core IAPH themes and is the key to business improvement

Major cyber-attacks such as the SolarWinds and Kaseya incidents demonstrate the need to focus significantly more on software supply chain security as well as traditional cyber defense areas. Avoiding the code tampering that occurred in both of those attacks by criminals and internal parties is essential. This whitepaper looks at how to increase security throughout the Software Development Lifecycle and implement a multi-layered, defense-indepth code tampering prevention and detection strategy.

The good news is that developments in ITS, the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advances in exciting areas such as driverless cars and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communication will help alleviate congestion, reduce accidents and increase safety. As states struggle to balance funding priorities, including transportation, ITS technology and the emerging IoT ecosystem can enhance investments in transportation infrastructure, which is critical to the economic and social fabric of the U.S. and safe travel. For example, active traffic management, which includes advance notice about traffic conditions to motorists using variable speed limits, lane management signs and overhead message signs, has reduced collisions and congestion in the Seattle I-5 corridor. Similar initiatives are emerging elsewhere. Around the world the ITS ecosystem is making a difference.
