Enacted under the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) 1974, it was adopted in December 2002 by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) following the 9\/11 terrorist attacks. The primary objective of the ISPS Code is to establish an international framework to detect and assess security threats and implement preventive measures against security incidents affecting ships or port facilities.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-family:&apos;Fraunces&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:25px;font-weight:600;color:#0B2436;margin:38px 0 14px\">Structure of the ISPS Code<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-family:&apos;Source Serif 4&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:18px;line-height:1.72;color:#0B2436;margin:0 0 18px\">The ISPS Code is divided into two main parts:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"margin:0 0 18px;padding-left:22px;font-family:&apos;Source Serif 4&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:18px;line-height:1.72;color:#0B2436\">\n<li style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong style=\"color:#0B2436\">Part A:<\/strong> This section contains mandatory requirements.

Minimum appropriate protective security measures are maintained at all times.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong style=\"color:#0B2436\">Security Level 2:<\/strong> Heightened threat level. Additional protective security measures are maintained for a period of time based on a heightened risk of a security incident.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong style=\"color:#0B2436\">Security Level 3:<\/strong> Exceptional threat level. Further specific protective security measures are maintained for a limited period of time when a security incident is probable or imminent, although it may not be possible to identify the specific target.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 style=\"font-family:&apos;Fraunces&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:20px;font-weight:600;color:#0B2436;margin:28px 0 12px\">2.

The findings from the SSA inform the development of the SSP, which outlines protocols, procedures, and measures to be followed to mitigate security risks. The SSP is subject to review and approval by a recognized security organization or the flag state administration.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-family:&apos;Fraunces&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:20px;font-weight:600;color:#0B2436;margin:28px 0 12px\">4.

The PFSP is then developed to address these threats and implement necessary security measures. The plan includes details on access control, surveillance, emergency procedures, and liaison with other law enforcement agencies.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-family:&apos;Fraunces&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:25px;font-weight:600;color:#0B2436;margin:38px 0 14px\">Implementation and Compliance<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-family:&apos;Source Serif 4&apos;,Georgia,serif;font-size:18px;line-height:1.72;color:#0B2436;margin:0 0 18px\">The effective implementation of the ISPS Code requires the cooperation and coordination of various stakeholders.
