International shipping industry organizations have launched a website dedicated to providing comprehensive maritime security guidance to companies and mariners.
Launched with military support, the new website www.maritimeglobalsecurity.org provides security-related guidance produced by the industry, as well as links to other useful maritime and military security resources.
“In a world of increasingly complex security risks, it is essential that mariners and ships are protected. The new website will be a freely available facility where companies and mariners can access essential guidance and information to help them comprehensively prepare for voyages through areas of security risk,” the authors said.
