🔍 Key Concepts

• Ship Security Alert System (SSAS) function under SOLAS/ISPS (security alert, not distress alert) • Difference between distress alerts to all ships and covert security alerts to authorities • Typical use of Inmarsat-C for transmitting ship-to-shore security information

💭 Think About

• Is the SSAS meant to warn every nearby vessel at sea, or to quietly inform specific shore-based authorities about a security threat? • Does a security alert need to be broadcast on open radio channels (like VHF or MF-HF), or kept covert so potential attackers are not aware it has been activated? • Which listed option best matches a ship-to-shore, covert, security function rather than an open distress or safety broadcast?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify that SSAS is a covert, ship-to-shore alert under SOLAS and ISPS, not a general distress broadcast. • Check which options involve all ships alerts or open radio channels (VHF / MF-HF) – those are typical for distress/safety, not covert security. • Confirm that the correct choice involves Inmarsat-C used to send a targeted security alert to shore-based authorities, not to all ships.
