Summary/Abstract: The article attempts to present maritime infrastructure facilities that may or should be included in critical infrastructure facilities. Due to their nature and importance for safety and economy, these facilities may be classified as national or European critical infrastructure facilities. The threats resulting from intentional criminal human activity, which may disrupt the functioning of port facilities, were also presented. The basic and also the most vulnerable facilities of maritime critical infrastructure are seaports. Their safety can be violated from three directions: land, air, and sea. At the same time, it is not possible to ensure the same level of security in all port and land areas. Therefore, port facilities were particularly vulnerable to threats. Ensuring the proper level of port facilities security requires undertaking a number of organizational and technical projects.
