    PORT MANAGEMENT
     Port management 
     Large ports need to deal with a number of
    disparate activities: the movement of ships,
    containers and other cargo, the loading and
    unloading of ships and containers, customs
    activities. As well as human resources,
    anchorages, channels, lighters, tugs, berths,
    warehouse and other storage spaces have to be
    allocated and released.
     The efficient management of a port involves
    managing these activities and resources,
    managing the flows of money involved
    between the agents providing and using
    these resources, and providing
    management information.
    Port security

     Port security refers to the defense, law and


    treaty enforcement, and counterterrorism
    activities that fall within the port and
    maritime domain. It includes the protection
    of the seaports themselves, the protection
    and inspection of the cargo moving through
    the ports, and maritime security.
     Internationally, port security is governed by
    rules issued by the International maritime
    Organization and its 2002 International Ship
    and Port Facility Security Code. Additionally,
    some U.S.-based programs have become
    de facto global port security programs,
    including the Container Security
    Initiative and the Customs Trade
    Partnership against Terrorism
