<![CDATA[Port security is a crucial component of maritime security that plays a vital role in facilitating economic activity at sea, particularly in the transit of people, commodities, and services. The terrorist assault on September 11, 2001, commonly referred to as 9/11, resulted in the destruction of the twin towers of the World Trade Centre (WTC) in New York, United States. This event served as the catalyst for the adoption of the International Ships and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) across all port facilities. It is desired that acts of terrorism, narcotics smuggling, illegal drug trafficking, piracy, and theft do not take place. The objective of this study is to examine the execution of security system policies, the compliance of port facility facilities and infrastructure, and the necessary measures to regulate and meet these facilities and infrastructure. The ultimate goal is to reduce and prevent potential security risks to port facilities.
