Maritime Security Awareness Practice Test

Security level 1 in the context of the International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code refers to the baseline level of security measures that are required under normal operational conditions when no specific threats have been identified. At this level, ships and port facilities follow standard security protocols to ensure safety and security without the immediate pressure of heightened threats.

This level emphasizes the importance of maintaining routine security practices and vigilance, such as access control and monitoring of the port and ship operations. While security level 1 does not mandate additional or enhanced measures, it establishes a foundation for security preparedness, ensuring that personnel remain alert and prepared to respond to potential threats if they arise.

The other options pertain to higher levels of security which are activated in response to increased threat conditions.
