Abstract This article sought to raise the awareness of vulnerabilities in the maritime transportation systems sector and to ask those involved in security and emergency management to answer for themselves, “What are your acceptable risks?” In particular, the review alerts security and emergency managers to the Trojan horse risks that expose maritime organizations, including shippers, mariners, and port employees, to dangers from physical, personnel, and cyber security problems and from natural and man-made disasters, which may appear as Trojan horses. The article first discusses maritime threat actors, motives, tactics, and targets. Next, vulnerabilities of the maritime transportation systems sector that could be exploited by those seeking to conduct a Trojan horse attack are examined. Finally, a variety of security measures used to protect the maritime transportation systems sector from Trojan horse attacks are described. Advice to those in security and emergency management for maritime organizations on how to recognize, plan, and mitigate Trojan horse issues is provided.
