The safety and economic security of the United States depends upon
the secure use of the world's oceans. Since the attacks of
September 11, 2001, the Federal government has reviewed and
strengthened all of its strategies to combat the evolving threat in
the War on Terrorism. Various departments have each carried out
maritime security strategies which have provided an effective layer
of security since 2001. In December 2004, the President directed
the Secretaries of the Department of Defense and Homeland Security
to lead the Federal effort to develop a comprehensive National
Strategy for Maritime Security, to better integrate and synchronize
the existing Department-level strategies and ensure their effective
and efficient implementation. Maritime security is best achieved by
blending public and private maritime security activities on a
global scale into an integrated effort that addresses all maritime
threats. The new National Strategy for Maritime Security aligns all
Federal government maritime security programs and initiatives into
a comprehensive and cohesive national effort involving appropriate
Federal, State, local, and private sector entities. In addition to
this Strategy, the Departments have developed eight supporting
plans to address the specific threats and challenges of the
maritime environment. While the plans address different aspects of
maritime security, they are mutually linked and reinforce each
other. The supporting plans include: National Plan to Achieve
Domain Awareness; Global Maritime Intelligence Integration Plan;
Interim Maritime Operational Threat Response Plan; International
Outreach and Coordination Strategy; Maritime Infrastructure
Recovery Plan; Maritime Transportation System Security Plan;
Maritime Commerce Security Plan; Domestic Outreach Plan;
Development of these plans was guided by the security principles
outlined in this National Strategy for Maritime Security. These
plans will be updated on a periodic basis in response to changes in
the maritime threat, the world environment, and national security
policies. Together, the National Strategy for Maritime Security and
its eight supporting plans present a comprehensive national effort
to promote global economic stability and protect legitimate
activities while preventing hostile or illegal acts within the
maritime domain.
