Windward's solutions cater to industries such as Defense & Public Sector (Defense & Intelligence, Law Enforcement, Customs), Commercial (Oil & Energy, Commodity Trade, Marine Insurance, Shipping, Financial Institutions), and for critical maritime infrastructure protection, vessel screening, smuggling detection, and IUU fishing.
