2 1 The Company Security Officer (CSO) 2

3 The Company shall designate a Company Security Officer (CSO) For one or more ships depending on number or types operated Clearly identified for which ships the CSO is responsible More than one CSOs may be designated by the Company, provided it is clearly identified for which ships each one is responsible CSO is the liaison of the Company and the Ship(s) CSO duties and responsibilities shall include, but are not limited to: 3

4 Advising the level of the threats likely to be encountered by the ship Ensuring that ship security assessments are carried out Ensuring the development, approval, implementation and maintenance of the ship security plan Ensuring modification of SSP to correct deficiencies and satisfy the security requirements of each individual ship Arranging for internal audits and reviews of security activities Arranging for the initial and subsequent verifications of the ship by the administration or the Recognized Security Organization (RSO) 4

5 Ensuring that deficiencies and non-conformities identified during internal audits, periodic reviews, security inspections and verifications of compliance are promptly addressed and dealt with Enhancing security awareness and vigilance Ensuring adequate training for personnel with ship security duties Ensuring effective communication and co-operation between the Ship Security Officer (SSO) and the Port Facility Security Officer (PFSO) Ensuring consistency between security and safety requirements Ensuring that if sister-ship or fleet security plans are used, the plan for each ship accurately reflects the ship-specific information 5

6 Ensuring that any alternative or equivalent arrangements approved for a particular ship or group of ships are implemented & maintained The CSO shall also Support the SSO and the Master of the ship on security matters Evaluate on quarterly basis the SSO security reports, the outcome of onboard security drills and the security incidents or breach of security Keep the SSO and the Master of the ship informed on latest security information on ship s pattern and any Flag State security guidance Coordinate security issues with the PFSO of regularly called ports 6

7 2 The Ship Security Officer (SSO) 7

8 A Ship Security Officer (SSO) shall be designated on each ship Any qualified Officer may be designated as SSO The Master of the Ship may be also designated as SSO, but its is not recommended The SSO is the liaison between the Ship and the Company SSO duties and responsibilities shall include, but are not limited to: 8

9 Undertaking regular security inspections of the ship to ensure appropriate security measures are maintained Maintaining and supervising the implementation of the ship security plan, including any amendments to the plan Coordinating the security aspects of cargo and ship s stores handling with shipboard personnel and the relevant PFSO Proposing modifications to the ship security plan Reporting to CSO any deficiencies and non-conformities identified during internal audits, periodic reviews, security inspections and verifications of compliance and implementing any corrective action 9

10 Enhancing security awareness and vigilance on board Ensuring the provision of adequate training to shipboard personnel Reporting all security incidents and breach of security Coordinating implementation of the ship security plan with the CSO and the relevant PFSO, and Ensuring the security equipments, if any, are properly operated, tested, calibrated and maintained The SSO shall also Ensure the proper security documentation and records keeping 10

11 3 Ship Security Assessment (SSA) 11

12 The CSO shall ensure that a Ship Security Assessment (SSA) is carried out for each ship in the Company s fleet, required to comply with the provisions of SOLAS Chapter XI-2 and the ISPS Code, for which the CSO is responsible. While the CSO may not undertake all the duties associated with the post, the ultimate responsibility remains with the individual CSO Prior to commencing the SSA, the CSO should take advantage of available information on the assessment of threats and the protective measures at the frequently called ports The CSO should follow any specific guidance offered by the Contracting Governments 12

13 The SSA should address the following elements on board or within the ship physical security structural integrity personnel protection systems procedural policies radio and telecommunication systems, including computer systems and networks other areas that may, if damaged or used for illicit observation, pose a risk to people, property, or operations on board the ship or within a port facility Those involved in a SSA should be able to draw expert assistance on security aspects if they are not properly qualified 13

14 Let s see a SSA in a more practical way; How it should look like? An adequate SSA should have at least 10 Sections, as follows: Section 1: Introduction Section 2: Definitions Section 3: Information required to conduct a SSA Section 4: Identification of possible motives for unlawful actions Section 5: Initial assessment of key shipboard operations, existing security measures and procedures Section 6: Identification of possible threat scenarios Section 7: Onboard ship security survey (SSS) Section 8: Identification of weaknesses during SSS Section 9: Threat and vulnerability (risk) assessment & mitigation Section 10: SSA summary report 14

39 Section 5: Assessment of Key Shipboard Operations Existing Security Measures & Procedures The critical shipboard operations, systems, physical areas and personnel that may be subject to security incidents should be duly highlighted for evaluation in relation to ship s trading areas, the ship s characteristics and other operational conditions. Existing security measures and procedures for the same operations, systems, areas etc. should be also included for further evaluation The key shipboard operations should be divided in the following categories: 39

40 Section 5: Assessment of Key Shipboard Operations Existing Security Measures & Procedures (continue) Access Control (personnel, passengers, visitors, vendors, contractors, etc.) Restricted Areas on the Ship Cargo Handling Ship s Stores Handling Ship s Security Surveillance & Monitoring Ship s Safety Systems and Procedures 40

41 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios Identification of possible threat scenarios on the basis of intelligent information of the Company for the ship s routes, the cargo transported, and ports used by the ship. Risk-based decision-making is one of the best tool to complete a security assessment and to determine appropriate security measures for a ship A security assessment is a process that identifies weaknesses in physical structures, personnel protection systems, processes or other areas that may lead to a security breach, and may suggest options to eliminate or mitigate those weaknesses 41

42 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios (continue) A simplified risk-based security assessment is recommended. The processes and results that will be documented when performing the assessment are highlighted below Select a Scenario Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of potential consequences Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the ship s vulnerability Determine if the scenario requires a mitigation strategy Implement mitigation strategy (protective measures) 42

43 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios (continue) To begin the process, a threat scenario is selected 1. Select a scenario 43

44 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios (continue) To begin the assessment, the attack scenarios consisting of a potential threat to the ship under specific circumstances are considered The selected scenarios must be within the realm of possibility The number of scenarios is left to the judgment of each ship owner or operator. An initial evaluation should at least consider those scenarios provided in Paragraph 8.9 of part B of ISPS Code The emphasis should be placed on the worst-case scenario as well as the most probable scenarios. 44

45 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios (continue) The following selected threat scenarios are recommended for further sub-scenarios analysis Damage to, destruction of, the ship (bombing, arson, sabotage) Hijacking or seizure of the ship or of persons on board Tampering with cargo, essential ship equipment or systems or ship s stores Unauthorized access or use including presence of stowaways Smuggling weapons or equipment, including weapons of mass destruction 45

46 Section 6: Identification of Possible Threat Scenarios (continue) The following selected threat scenarios are recommended for further sub-scenarios analysis Use of the ship to carry perpetrators and their personal equipment Use the ship itself as a weapon or as a mean to cause damage or destruction Attacks from seaward Attacks whilst at sea Other possible scenarios 46

47 Section 7: Onboard Ship Security Survey At this stage, the onboard Ship Security Survey should be conducted, towards the: Verification of the information provided by the Shipping Company Evaluation of effectiveness on existing security measures and procedures Evaluation of the existing security systems onboard, if any Identification and proper documentation of weaknesses 47

48 Section 7: Onboard Ship Security Survey (continue) During the onboard ship security survey existing shipboard protective measures, if any, procedures and operations, under both routine and emergency conditions should be examined and evaluated for: Ensuring the performance of the ship security duties Monitoring restricted areas to ensure that only authorized persons have access Controlling access to the ship, including any identification systems applied Monitoring of deck areas and areas surrounding the ship 48

49 Section 7: Onboard Ship Security Survey (continue) During the onboard ship security survey existing shipboard protective measures, if any, procedures and operations, under both routine and emergency conditions should be examined and evaluated for: Controlling the embarkation of persons and their personal effects, accompanied and unaccompanied baggage, and ship s personnel effects Supervising the handling of cargo and the delivery of ship s stores Ensuring that ship s security communication, information and equipment are readily available 49

50 Section 7: Onboard Ship Security Survey (continue) During the onboard ship security survey, due attention should be given to the identification and proper documentation, of eventual weaknesses relating to: Conflicts between safety and security measures Conflicts between shipboard duties and security assignments Watch-keeping duties, number of personnel, particularly with implications on crew fatigue, alertness and performance Any identified security training deficiencies, including drills and exercises Any insufficient, poor maintained, sub-standard security equipment or systems, including communication systems 50

51 Section 8: Identification of Weaknesses During Ship Security Survey Upon completion of the onboard ship security survey, identified weaknesses in the following areas should be thoroughly evaluated Company Security Management and Policy Company Security Organization Company Security Officer (CSO) Ship Security officer (SSO) Ship s Master Ship s Personnel Training and Qualification Ship Security Plan (SSP) (not applicable at initial SSA) Ship Security Surveys and Audits (not applicable at initial SSA) Security Records (not applicable at initial SSA) 51

52 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy At this stage all information are available to proceed with: Threat s scenarios analysis Threat s potential consequences Analysis of ship s vulnerability Threat s mitigation strategy 52

53 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) In Section 6, the possible threat scenarios, relevant to the ship, were Identified. Based on the possible threat scenarios, a threat and vulnerability (risk) assessment is processes as per step 2 of the process sequence below 1. Select a scenario 2. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the potential consequences 53

54 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Each scenario is being evaluated in terms of the potential consequences of the attack. Three elements are included in the consequences assessment; death and injury, economic impact, and environmental impact. A description of the consequences components follows: Death and injury The potential number of lives that could be lost and injuries occurring as a result of an attack scenario. Economic impact The potential economic impact of an attack scenario. Environmental impact The potential environmental impact of an attack scenario. 54

55 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The appropriate consequences score or rating should be evaluated for each scenario. Consequences rating and criteria with benchmarks are provided in the following table. The appropriate rating is determined by using the consequence component that results in the highest rating. Table 2: Consequences Score Assign a rating of: If the impact could be CATASTROPHIC = numerous loss of life or injuries, major national or long term economic impact, complete destruction of multiple aspects of the eco-system over a large area SIGNIFICANT = multiple loss of life or injuries, major regional economic impact, long-term damage to a portion of the eco-system MODERATE = little or no loss of life or injuries, minimal economic impact, or some environmental damage 55

56 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Each scenario should be evaluated in terms of the ship s vulnerability to an attack, as per step 3 in the process sequence. 1. Select a scenario 2. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the potential consequences 3. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the ship s vulnerability 56

57 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The four elements of the vulnerability score are: availability, accessibility, organic security, and vessel hardness. With the understanding that the vessel owner and/or operator have the greatest control over the accessibility and organic security elements, these elements may be addressed for each scenario. Description of these two vulnerability elements follow: Accessibility Accessibility of the vessel to the attack scenario. This relates to physical and geographic barriers that deter the threat without organic security. Organic security The ability of security personnel to deter the attack. It includes security plans, communication capabilities, guard force, intrusion detection systems, and timeliness of outside law enforcement to prevent the attack. 57

58 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The ship owner and/or operator should discuss each vulnerability element for a given scenario. The initial evaluation of vulnerability is normally viewed with only existing strategies and protective measures, meant to lessen vulnerabilities, which are already in place. After the initial evaluation, a comparison evaluation can be made with new strategies and protective measures considered. Assessing the vulnerability with only the existing strategies and protective measures provides a better understanding of the overall risk associated with the scenario and how new strategies and protective measures will mitigate the risk. 58

59 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The vulnerability score and criteria with benchmark examples are provided in the following table. Each scenario should be evaluated to get the individual score for each element and then the sum of these elements will give the total vulnerability score (step 3 in Table 5). This score should be used as the vulnerability score when evaluating each scenario in the next step. 59

60 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Table 3: Vulnerability Score Category Accessibility Organic Security 3 No deterrence (e.g. unrestricted access to vessel and unrestricted internal movement) No deterrence capability (e.g. no plan, no guard force, no emergency communication, outside law enforcement not available for timely prevention, no detection capability) 2 1 Good deterrence (e.g. single substantial barrier; unrestricted access to within 100 yards of vessel) Excellent deterrence (expected to deter attack; access restricted to within 500 yards of vessel; multiple physical/ geographical barriers) Good deterrence capability (e.g. minimal security plan, some communications, armed guard force of limited size relative to the vessel; outside law enforcement not available for timely prevention, limited detection systems) Excellent deterrence capability expected to deter attack; (covert security elements that represent additional elements not visible or apparent) 60

61 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The vessel owner and/or operator should next determine which scenarios might have mitigation strategies (protective measures) implemented, as per step 4 in the process sequence. 1. Select a scenario 2. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the potential consequences 3. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the ship s vulnerability 4. Determine if the scenario requires a mitigation strategy 61

62 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) This is accomplished by determining where the scenario falls in Table 4 based on the consequence and vulnerability assessment scores.the following terms are used in Table 4 as mitigation categories: Mitigate means that mitigation strategies, such as security protective measures and/or procedures should be developed to reduce risk for that scenario. Consider means that the scenario should be considered and mitigation strategies should be developed on a case-by-case basis. Document means that the scenario may not need mitigation measure at this time and therefore needs only to be documented. However, mitigation measures having little cost may still merit consideration. 62

63 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Table 4 is intended as broad, relative tool to assist in the development of the ship security plan. Results are not intended to be the sole basis to trigger or waive the need for specific measures, but are one tool in identifying potential vulnerabilities and evaluating prospective methods to address them. Table 4: Vulnerability & Consequences Matrix Vulnerability Score Consequenc e score 3 Consider Mitigate Mitigate 2 Document Consider Mitigate 1 Document Document Consider 63

64 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) An assistance tool in determining which scenarios may require mitigation methods is Table 5 below. The scenarios considered have been rerecorded, the consequence score (Table 2), outcome of each element of vulnerability (Table 3), the total vulnerability score, and mitigation category Table 5 MITIGATION DETERMINATION WORKSHEET Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Scenario/Description Consequences Score (Table 2) accessibility + Vulnerability Score (Table 3) organic security = total score Mitigation Results (Table 4) 64

65 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The true value of these assessments is realized, once the assessment determines which scenarios require mitigation, and when mitigation strategies (protective measures) are implemented to reduce vulnerabilities, 1. Select a scenario as per Step 5 in the process sequence. 2. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the potential consequences 3. Evaluate/Score the scenario in terms of the ship s vulnerability The process is repeated until all unique scenarios have been evaluated 4. Determine if the scenario requires a mitigation strategy 5. Implement mitigation strategy (protective measures) 65

66 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) The overall desire is to reduce the risk associated with the identified scenario. Note that generally, as mentioned previously, it is easier to reduce vulnerabilities than to reduce consequences or threats when considering mitigation strategies. An assistance tool in evaluating the effectiveness of specific mitigation strategies (protective measures), that is beneficial to use, is Table 6 provided below. 66

67 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Table 6 MITIGATION IMPLEMENTATION WORKSHEET Mitigation Strategy (Protective Measure) Scenario(s) that are affected by Mitigation Strategy (from Step 1 in Table 5) Consequences Score (remains the same) New Vulnerability Score (Table 3) Accessibili ty + Organic Security = Total Score New Mitigation Results (Table 4)

68 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Guidance to complete Table 6 Column 1: Brainstorm for mitigation strategies (protective measures) and Record them Column 2: List scenarios from Table 5 that would be affected by the selected mitigation strategy Column 3: The consequences score remains the same as it was recorded in Table 5 for each scenario Column 4: Re-evaluate the vulnerability score (Table 3) for each element, taking into consideration the mitigation strategy, for each scenario Column 5: Determine the new mitigation results with the consequences score and new total vulnerability score, using Table 4 68

69 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) There are two factors, effectiveness and feasibility, to consider in determining if a mitigation strategy should be implemented. A strategy may be thought of as highly effective if its implementation lowers the mitigation category (e.g. from mitigate to consider in Table 4) A strategy may be thought of as partially effective if the particularly strategy will lower the overall vulnerability score when implemented or along with one or more other strategies. For example, if a mitigation strategy lowers the vulnerability score from 5-6 to 3-4 while the consequences score remains at 3 and the mitigation category stays at mitigate, a combination of another strategy would be required. 69

70 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) It should be noted that if a mitigation strategy, when considered individually, does not reduce the vulnerability, that multiple strategies may be considered in combination. Considering mitigation strategies as a whole may allow the vulnerability to be reduced. A strategy may be thought of as feasible if it can be implemented with little operational impact or funding relative to the prospective reduction in vulnerability. A strategy may be thought of as partially feasible if its implementation requires significant changes or funding relative to the prospective reduction in vulnerability. A strategy may be thought of as not feasible if its implementation is extremely problematic or is cost prohibitive. 70

71 Section 9: Threat and Vulnerability (Risk) Assessment and Mitigation Strategy (continue) Some strategies that may be deployed commensurate with various security levels established. Feasibility of a mitigation strategy may vary based on the applicable security Level, therefore some strategies may not be warranted at Level 1, but may be at Levels 2 or 3. For example, using divers to inspect the underwater pier structures and vessel may not be necessary at Level 1, but may be necessary if there is a specific threat and/or an increase in Security Level. Mitigation strategies should ultimately ensure that a level of security is maintained to achieve the desired security objectives. 71
