Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis techniques are applied to analyze the data obtained there from in order to understand the effect of maritime security implementation onboard ship. Four primary dimensions of maritime security implementation were identified, namely: security knowledge and capability, security manpower, security training, and security equipment. Results revealed that respondents from Philippines had high perceptions on security knowledge and capability, security manpower, and security equipment dimensions, whereas respondents from India and Myanmar had high perceptions on security training dimension. Theoretical and practical implications from the research findings in maritime security management are discussed.
