Next-Generation Underwater Surveillance

Explore cutting-edge acoustic sensing, active and passive sonar arrays, and subsea positioning telemetry designed to pierce the opacity of the deep ocean and provide continuous domain awareness.

Closing the Monitoring Gap with Unmanned Fleets

Examine how crewed-uncrewed teaming (MUM-T) and persistent autonomous surveillance networks enable round-the-clock observation of vulnerable chokepoints, cable landing stations and offshore energy grids.

AI-Driven Data Fusion & Threat Discrimination

Discover how advanced software, machine learning and multi-sensor data fusion process massive streams of tracking intelligence in real time — instantly filtering false positives and flagging physical anomalies or unauthorised seabed activity before disruption occurs.

Safeguarding the Indo-Pacific Subsea Matrix: Regional Domain Awareness, Multilateral Resilience, and India's SAGAR Framework

• Operationalising India's SAGAR Vision for Undersea Security: How India's policy framework — Security and Growth for All in the Region (SAGAR) — guides the Indian Navy's proactive posture in monitoring strategic chokepoints, offshore energy hubs and subsea cable corridors across the Indian Ocean and entry points to the Malacca Strait
• The IFC-IOR Model for Inter-Agency Information Fusion: Examining the Information Fusion Centre – Indian Ocean Region (IFC-IOR) as an operational case study in real-time maritime situational awareness, highlighting how cross-border data sharing, international liaison officers and integrated surface, air and undersea tracking mitigate hybrid and non-traditional underwater threats
• Building ASEAN-India Defence Partnerships for Infrastructure Resilience: Practical mechanisms for aligning naval defence capabilities, joint hydrographic surveys and subsea surveillance protocols between the Indian Armed Forces and ASEAN maritime defence partners to secure critical energy and telecommunication infrastructure against sabotage and disruption

Seabed Warfare & Critical Undersea Infrastructure Protection

• A situational analysis of the operational and technical realities of monitoring high-density, multi-user maritime zones where commercial shipping traffic, offshore energy installations and fishing activities intersect
• Examining common engineering hurdles in combining diverse data inputs — such as surface radar tracks, automatic identification systems (AIS) and remote sensor feeds — into a unified operating picture without system latency or data overload
• Exploring open, non-sensitive architectural approaches for structuring command-and-control (C2) situational monitoring systems to ensure smooth information sharing between civil authorities and naval monitoring units

Attend

Military and government personnel attend free. Commercial delegates gain two days of access to naval decision-makers, regional maritime security leaders and the full conference programme.
