The basic idea is that in case of an attempted piracy effort, terrorist act, or any other incident which can be defined as a threat to the ship under the maritime security, the ship's SSAS beacon would be activated, responding to which an appropriate law-enforcement or military forces would be dispatched for rescue.
When SSAS is activated it must transmit and alert to?
6.2 The ship security alert when activated shall transmit the alert at communication center. Once activated the SSAS should continue to transmit unless reset or deactivated. The frequency of transmission of alert should be transmitted at intervals not exceeding 30 minutes.
Who activates SSAS?
The flag state authority is responsible for notifying the appropriate response agencies. Onboard the SSAS must have a minimum of two activation points (one on the bridge) to be able to activate a “covert” alert, without raising alarm on board ship itself or other ships or being registered in the terminal logs.
