“…For instance, in the aviation domain, STAMP was applied to represent an aircraft rapid decompression event (Allison, Revell et al 2017); in small drone operations (Chatzimichailidou, Karanikas et al 2017); and in the safety analysis regarding unmanned protective vehicles (Bagschik, Stolte et al 2017). In addition, STAMP has also been applied extensively to various domains of the maritime sector, for example, to design maritime safety management systems (Aps, Fetissov et al 2015, Aps, Fetissov et al 2016, Banda and Goerlandt 2018, Banda, Goerlandt et al 2019, to increase port security (Williams 2015), and to analyse maritime accidents (Kim, Nazir et al 2016, Goncalves Filho, Jun et al 2019.…”

“…Relevant literature has identified a number of papers proposing and testing theoretical risk assessment frameworks. For example, Williams (Williams, 2015) introduces the "System-Theoretic Accident Model and Process" (STAMP) as a new model of causality, based on systems and on control theory which identifies specific technical or procedural security requirements by using a System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA), thus developing port security design specifications that mitigate vulnerabilities. Similarly, analytical approaches to port security (Akhtar, Bjørnskau, & Veistein, 2010), (Ghafoori & Altiok, 2012), (Bakshi & Gans, 2010) seek to minimize the product of (a) the probability of a threat, (b) the probability of a vulnerability and/or (c) the expected value of losses / consequences.…”

Ports and terminals are considered critical infrastructure with higher protection requirements for an effective and efficient operation. This research introduces a security enhancement architectural framework for the specific case of port and port terminal facilities' passenger traffic, combining two different attributes, the cyber and the physical, and operationally integrating the proposed subsystem to the Port Community System. More precisely, this paper identifies, introduces and analyses a system that supports risk management by developing and validating a security framework which is based on monitoring access through Automated Border Control (ABC) structures aimed at ports and terminals. Additionally, the modular prototype developed, enhances the information sharing capabilities of the Port Community Systems in a way that improves collaboration for security related procedures, based on existing and easy to develop software capabilities. The architectural framework is validated by domain experts through semi-structured interview workshop improving the robustness of the top-down model for the design and the implementation of a risk management approach based on improved communication sharing and utilizing advanced equipment.

“…Port state control (PSC) inspection aims at identifying various potential maritime traffic safety risks, and thus, the ships with fatal deficiencies are detained to avoid potential maritime traffic accidents [1,2]. With the help of professional judgement, the PSC officials make ship detention decisions considering various observed ship technical deficiencies.…”

“…ough the PSC regime may vary in different countries, the PSC inspection regimes share the following points [6,7]: (1) PSC officials inspect ships at lower risk with a larger time interval (i.e., fatal deficiency to be found from the ships with lower probability), and vice versa; (2) the PSC inspection procedure focuses on various factors (e.g., deficiency types, flag state, ship classification society, and shipowner), which may impose a potential but significant threat to maritime traffic safety [8,9]. e ship detention decision is made after thoroughly inspecting the ship, which considers the weights of various observed deficiency factors.…”

Ship detention serves as an obligatory but efficient manner in port state control (PSC) inspection, and accurate ship detention prediction provides early warning information for maritime traffic participants. Previous studies mainly focused on exploiting the relationship between ship factors (i.e., ship age and ship type) and PSC inspection reports. Less attention was paid to identify and predict the correlation between ship fatal deficiency and ship detention event. To address the issue, we propose a novel framework to identify crucial ship deficiency types with an optimized analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model. Then, the Naïve Bayes model is introduced to predict the ship detention probability considering weights of the identified crucial ship deficiency types. Finally, we evaluate our proposed model performance on the empirical PSC inspection dataset. The research findings can help PSC officials easily determine main ship deficiencies, and thus, less time cost is required for implementing the PSC inspection procedure. In that manner, the PSC officials can quickly make ship detention decision and thus enhance maritime traffic safety.
