12 Part I: Guide for Evaluating Security Measures for the U.S. Ferry System
3.2.5 Criteria Group 5: Threat Type
Three general categories of threats are considered: delivery of explosives or incendiaries; acts
of force (e.g., hijacking, commandeering, and ramming); and delivery of WMDs (i.e., chemical,
biological, or radiological agents). Based on assessments of your operation's vulnerabilities, some
threats may be of more concern than others. For each threat type below, indicate the relative
importance of additional security measures to address the threat.
0 = not important 3 = moderate importance
1 = low importance 4 = moderate to high importance
2 = low to moderate importance 5 = high importance
