Presented below, the article is of interdisciplinary nature, as it combines problems related to security sciences and methods and tools applied in management and quality sciences. The aim of the article is to present application of the FMEA method used for evaluation of risk in the field of maritime security of the State. The solution to the research problem involves the implementation of the FMEA method as a procedure that allows for the assessment of risks posed to maritime security in the indicated aspects and for the definition of necessary corrective and preventive actions eliminating these risks. During the research, it has been possible to verify a hypothesis stating that the accurate evaluation of risks posed to maritime security in the discussed aspects is viable due to the application of FMEA and the determination of the values of the suitable measures and indicators resulting from that analysis. This modus operandi allows the Author to fill in a research gap with the use of an interdisciplinary approach toward the problem in question. The results of the particular stages of the study come as the results of the Author’s own scientific research discussed on the example of Poland. Consequently, the set of activities recommended to eliminate the risks identified in the area under research is established.
