Summary/Abstract: In modern era, a wide range of threats affect the maritime domain and, in these conditions, it is important to take action by monitoring and preventing security threats in maritime regions and to create a proper maritime security in order to guarantee a continuous maritime traffic. To provide a proper solution for the security of the modern maritime domain, we have to change the way we operated in the past, namely by means of large number of forces engaged in lethal actions, with the main goal to control the seas using mainly non-lethal actions, designated to protect the main sea line of communication. The Information Operation capabilities engaged in the maritime domain can properly support the Maritime Security Operations and can sustain the actions to neutralise maritime security risks.
