| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Littoral security has been an issue among Indian national security planners and the government established the Indian Coast Guard in 1976. Maritime asymmetric challenges and threats require a sophisticated strategy that pivots on domain awareness and effective translation of intelligence into credible response action. Coordinated operations and sharing of intelligence among the maritime security agencies would help an efficient response mechanism to counter threats to littoral security. In essense, proactive systematic-organisational-operational initiatives hold the key to enhanced domain awareness and credible response to maritime threats. |
