ISRC Committees
Information · Physical · Personnel · Cyber — advancing P2SeMS — Port Protective Security Systems across the jurisdiction and Alliance.
Collaboratively, we have engaged in a process of learning, responding, training, and evaluating to ensure that both our organizations and others are equipped with the necessary knowledge and skills. An exemplary illustration of this is incident review. Initially addressing communication challenges during active shooter events, our focus expanded to encompass incident reviews involving active shooters, terrorism, and other severe crimes. From these reviews emerged not only valuable insights but also a set of best practices.
Our efforts are set on a committed joint international alliance and resuming this process. Our intention is to review additional incidents and revisit the outcomes of our reviews, particularly our Community Security Best Practice Guide. Through this ongoing process, we strive to enhance our preparedness and response capabilities continually.
Four Pillars of P2SeMS
Information
Intelligence sharing, threat briefings, and secure communications across the alliance.
Physical
Asset protection, perimeter security, and operational readiness for ports and terminals.
Cyber
Resilience of operational technology and digital systems underpinning security operations.
Personnel
Workforce readiness, vetting, and human-factor resilience across the security function.
ISRC Committees
The council is broken down into segments addressing different areas of risk based on P2SeMS.
Crisis Management — After Action Reviews
Structured incident reviews to capture lessons learned and translate them into doctrine.
Preventive Security — Risk and Resilience
Proactive threat reduction and resilience-building across the aviation, maritime, and transport domains.
Technology and Cyber
Hardening of systems and adoption of emerging technology in service of the security mission.
Standards & Practices
Codification of community best practice into shared, adoptable standards.
Supply Chain Security
End-to-end integrity of the supply chain underpinning port and transport operations.
Training and Exercises
Tabletop, field, and collaborative exercises to test and sustain readiness.
Elevating What Has Worked to a Whole New Level
Based on the success of our international incident review security work, we look to formally bring together authorities and organizations to work internationally on ISRC — addressing operational and crisis management challenges in support of the combination of the 4Ps and PSeMS.
