Introduction:

Marine security management under the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code provides the framework for protecting ships, port facilities, personnel, cargo, and critical maritime infrastructure against evolving security threats. It integrates maritime security governance, security risk management, ship and port facility security, regulatory compliance, emergency preparedness, and international coordination to strengthen the resilience and continuity of maritime operations. This training program explores the ISPS Code framework, maritime security governance, security planning, risk assessment methodologies, compliance requirements, and operational security measures aligned with international maritime regulations.
