Cruise Ship Security

MarSec Global Cruise Services provides a holistic security service to ensure the protection of your guests, crew, brand, and voyage.

We offer more than just protective cruise ship security.  We can supply technical advice, security training including CVSSA, crisis response, and itinerary planning.

Our in-house cruise ship security officers, certified trainers, and ISPS/ISM lead auditors, provide a wide range of professional services and accredited training packages – all delivered onboard or at one of our UK training facilities.

Security Recruitment

Cruise ship security personnel are an integral part of the team yet professional standards vary significantly.  We commonly see little or no pre-deployment training, an absence of ongoing training, and varying language proficiency.

In partnership with KR Contracting based in the United States, we recruit, select and train only the highest caliber candidates.  In addition to the 6 Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping (STCW) courses, our security crews all attend MarSec Global’s in-house 10-day Cruise Ship Security Course provided by TYR Training and Development.

All are required to pass an English test before deployment and receive customer service training in line with client company standards, policies, and procedures.

Security Training

MarSec Global collaborates with cruise lines and technical managers to create the most comprehensive security training package available to the cruise industry for existing staff. Whether it’s active shooter response, checkpoint escalation, or conflict management, our training content is adaptable to reflect the specific needs of the brand, the vessel, and your guests.
