Security Services Northwest offers maritime coverage as part of our formidable security capabilities. We have been providing waterborne security since 1990 to private businesses and government entities.
Nationwide Anti-Terrorist Security and Force Protection
Our past customers include Military Sealift Command, U.S. Navy, U.S. Army, General Dynamics, Westport Shipyard, Vigor Shipyard, Honolulu Academy of Arts, Department of Homeland Security, and Shell Oil. We were selected out of eight possible security companies to provide on-site security to the USS Missouri battleship when it was at the Bremerton Navy Shipyard.
Armed Counter Assault Team (CAT) members can be positioned in the vessel protection zone on a patrol boat capable of confronting unauthorized watercraft approaching the vessel. We use SAFE Boats as our primary craft. It can reach speeds of more than 40 mph and is equipped with PA sound equipment and warning lights to ward off unauthorized watercraft from the area.
This capability allows CAT to monitor and protect any ship's hull and surrounding area from the type of waterborne attacks that devastated the USS Cole or severely damaged a French flagged oil tanker in Yemen.
