Updates on Best Management Practices Maritime Security

Ship operators face a range of maritime security threats while navigating the oceans. These threats can come from both state and non-state actors. They often involve violent attacks, hijackings for ransom or theft, and even hostage situations.

The attackers may have criminal, ideological, or political motivations and heir attacks can be targeted or opportunistic. The updated publication Best Management Practices (BMP) Maritime Security combines regional BMP documents into one comprehensive document.

It focuses on managing security threats and risks globally and includes references to external sources for current regional information.
