Only a problem if those XP computers are connected to the Internet, I would expect tem to be on a local ship network and not using wifi.

It is a massive mistake to believe that digital devices not connected to the public Internet cannot be hacked.

Why, when they have spent so much, have they gone for an out dated and vulnerable system? MOD strikes again.

Remember the NHS computers going down because they were using this system.

Bet they spend a small fortune updating it in a couple of years instead of getting the most up to date system at the start.
