Maritime Security

The U.S. Coast Guard reports that approximately six million loaded containers arrive in the United States from overseas and nearly one billion tons of petroleum pass through U.S. ports every year. Nearly 6.5 million passengers travel on cruise ships and more than 113 million passengers and 32 million vehicles are carried on our ferry systems annually. The open seas were once a hunting ground for pirates and thieves. Although the days of an old pirate ship flying the skull and crossbones are gone, a new form of pirate has emerged just as deadly and motivated by greed, terrorism, and hatred. USSA understands that the need to protect our people and products in today’s world is very real.
