Key vulnerabilities are identified and documented and an Action Plan provided, listing the recommended security control measures to be implemented in priority order.

Ship Security Survey (SSS)

The Trident SSS report provides independent advice on the vulnerabilities of a Ship to a range of threat natures, such as piracy, burglary or terrorism. Key vulnerabilities are recorded in an Action Plan that lists the recommended security control measures to be implemented in priority order. Recommendations from previous SSS reports have been proven to reduce the risk to vessels from piracy attacks in Nigeria and off the Coast of Somalia.

Maritime Asset Security Design

Trident Operations has observed that in some cases, Ship design has omitted critical physical and technical security features. With the marked increase of piracy attacks on the high seas through many of the worlds commercial shipping routes and choke-points, ship design needs to take into account security at the design stage in order to improve Resilience to maritime attacks whilst alongside, at anchor or underway. A secure-by-design approach is needed to future-proof vessels and prevent costly bolt-on retro-fit security solutions. Our consultants are able to offer authoritative advice at the early stages of the design process.
