Marine security is more important than you’d think. Conventionally most seas are under control; they’re safe to fish and travel through with no risk of your transport being attacked unless you are unable to identify yourself to the local coast guard. However, certain areas of the world are dangerous. You cannot travel there for work or pleasure without being at constant risk of theft and attack; this is where marine security comes in. Imagine you’re going to travel across this dangerous sea in order to transport cargo, or maybe you’re out in this sea doing research on the local sea life or having to dive in order to check wreckage. You cannot go out there alone and expect to make it out without a fight. You will be killed, be robbed, or be kidnapped. All three of these options are terrible and you should never have to experience them, but without marine security you are powerless to avoid these situations. Marine security first of all is a deterrent. If pirates see a boat is heavily protected by people who look to be professional marine security they are likely to leave the boat alone in order to avoid casualties and potential defeat. For the other type of pirates who will attempt attacking anyway, marine security will be able to both fend them off as well as being able to apprehend them and turn them into the authorities if possible.
Marine security members are often ex-military or police; they’re well trained in combat situations, security, and protection. Marine security is a response to the growing number of pirates operating in dangerous seas, in many cases off the African coastline. Much like other private security firms, marine security are hired on contract, meaning that if you’re planning to head to one of the dangerous seas for research or to transport cargo, you will have to hire marine security on this contract basis. While they are dedicated to your safety, they will not do a job as dangerous as this for free, so if you have the money to hire marine security, it is highly advised you do so.
