<p>Sea piracy has infested the seven seas throughout history. In modern times, the United States has paid little  attention to piracy because the nation's isolated vastness has protected the shipping industry from maritime crime. But  the events of 9/11 have changed the lens through which America views security. This thesis investigates modern day  piracy and links between piracy and terrorism in order to determine implications for U.S. maritime security strategy.  Specifically, the maritime environment in Southeast Asia and associated maritime security policies are researched  because a sizable proportion of the world's sea piracy occurs in that region. U.S. maritime security policy is also  evaluated.
