Security levels

How many ISPS security levels do you know?

I know that the ISPS Code acknowledges 3 threat-levels:

At security level 1, the following activities shall be carried out in order to take preventive measures against security incidents:

.1 ensuring the performance of all ship security duties;

.2 controlling access to the ship;

.3 controlling the embarkation of persons and their effects;

.4 monitoring restricted areas to ensure that only authorized persons have access;

.5 monitoring of deck areas and areas surrounding the ship;

.6 supervising the handling of cargo and ship’s stores; and

.7 ensuring that security communication is readily available.

At security level 2, the additional protective measures, specified in the ship security plan, shall be implemented for each activity detailed in section.

At security level 3, further specific protective measures, specified in the ship security plan, shall be implemented for each activity detailed in section.

 

Do you know ISPS Code?

Yes, I do. International Ship and Port Facility Security has an objective is to minimize risk of terrorist activity. This Code applies to: the following types of ships engaged on international voyages:

.1 passenger ships, including high-speed passenger craft;

.2 cargo ships, including high-speed craft, of 500 gross tonnage and upwards;

and

.3 mobile offshore drilling units; and

.4 port facilities serving such ships engaged on international voyages.

Company Security Officers (CSO) are appointed:

On a ship the Ship Security Officer (SSO)

For a harbor facility, the Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO).

All ships which are obliged to carry an ISPS certificate, and the relevant harbor facilities have to compile a security scheme:

- to know who is on board or in the facility;

- to control entrances and perform visitor identity checks;

- to control loading and discharging cargo and stores.

What should be done in case of Security level 2?

Security level 2 means the level for which appropriate additional protective

security measures shall be maintained for a period of time as a result of heightened risk of a security incident.

I must report transportation security incidents or suspicious people, objects or activities to Company Security Officer (CSO) or the Ship Security Officer (SSO).
