- SSP details: Outlines security threats, responses, and security levels. Includes details about restricted areas like the bridge, cargo control room, and engine room.
- Security levels: Three levels – 1 (Normal Risk), 2 (Increased Risk), and 3 (Imminent Incident). Different levels trigger different security measures.
- Level 1 (Normal Risk): Routine security measures maintained at all times.
- Level 2 (Increased Risk): Enhanced security measures implemented temporarily.
- Level 3 (Imminent Incident): Maximum security measures activated when an attack is likely.
Declaration of Security (DoS)
