Maritime businesses throughout the world are struggling to find ways and means to address their security issues, i.e., piracy, mar-jacking, etc. The maritime industry must now meet the challenges posed by the United States of America through its Homeland Security Initiatives. It must prepare and share in the responsibility of protecting its shorelines, both domestically and internationally. Shorelines can be easily penetrated unless measures are put into place which can minimize the threats posed by internal problems - pilferage, sabotage, and employee misconduct or by external problems - terrorism, civil unrest; criminal conduct and or worker shortages can and do present clear and present danger. Yet, these dangers are evident. The disgruntled employee, the religious zealous, the traitor within is much harder to detect and guard against. Each of these factors left unchecked pose a major threat to a company. The lives of each company worker, the safety of its visitors, vendors and clients and the capacity of a company to recover and overcome an attack rest on the ability of the corporate heads. Their foresight and willingness to address these issues can and very often do make the difference as to whether a company survives or closes its doors forever. Corporate leaders must be security minded. This is accomplished by obtaining a competent security firm who can assess the problem, preparing a sound security solution and implementing it.
Some security problems can and do present at times insurmountable difficulties to companies who are not prepared or obtain less than the best for their security concerns. Secure environments require a detailed assessment and implementation of a security plan.
Due to an increase in corporate risk emphasis must be placed on incorporating a total security solution for each client. M.E.R.I.T. is the answer. With over eighty (70) years of cumulative experience in the IT , physical security and law enforcement field M.E.R.I.T. can provide a totally integrated security solution by Detecting, Delaying, Denying and Deterring criminal conduct and protecting company assets.
