what do you consider the most critical elements to successful port operations around the world?

Discussion Questions: After reviewing elements of the threat from references both inside and outside the classroom, and the BIMCO video, what do you consider the most critical elements to successful port operations around the world? I define “successful” as the ability to establish and maintain a security regime across the port where information is shared, resources are pulled and the collective “security” of the participants is at the forefront. The best example of this type of approach is in the port of Boston and the port of Rotterdam. Please support your response with specifics regarding your choice of “element” and how it is applied within a port.
