“Seaborne piracy against transport vessels results in annual losses of an estimated $13-$16 billion.”
Conference Focus
Maritime Security in the US has been a focus since 9/11 with increasingly stringent port and border security requirements being mandated. However recent events have turned attention once again to terrorism in the maritime domain. The US has over 300 ports of entry across the country and some of the busiest and largest ports globally making the country vulnerable to attack. Global container traffic in the maritime arena has also lent itself to be the perfect disguise for a WMD or dirty bomb that would affect thousands. In addition international events of piracy have led to an increased focus on the shipping community and subsequent supporting roles various government agencies may have in such a crisis. As the maritime arena continues to be one of the most vulnerable and complex domains the need for collaborative preparedness and response is essential.
The marcus evans Maritime Security Conference will bring together professionals from industry and government to discuss the challenges involved in protecting the maritime domain.

“They had no right to win. Yet they did, and in doing so they changed the course of a war. Even against the greatest of odds, there is something in the human spirit – a magic blend of skill, faith and valor – that can lift men from certain defeat to incredible victory.”
– Walter Lord (Author, from Battle of Midway inscription on World War II Memorial in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = “urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags” />Washington, D.C.)
“Movement generates surprise and surprise gives impetus to movement.”
– Liddell Hart
“A military man can scarcely pride himself on having smitten a sleeping animal. It is more a matter of shame, simply, for the one smitten.”
– Admiral Yamamoto

“It always seemed strange to me that the things we admire in men,
kindness and generosity, openness, honesty, understanding and feeling
are the concomitants of failure in our system. And those traits we
detest, sharpness, greed, acquisitiveness, meanness, egotism and
self-interest are the traits of success. And while men admire the
quality of the first, they love the produce of the second.”
– John Steinbeck
