== Why Use an Alt Hauler? ==
 
Since the Crius patch, no training is needed to fit a pilot's racial Industrial with Cargohold Expander IIs and Medium Cargohold Optimization I rigs. This means that any character can fly a basic industrial to carry goods across star systems.
 
Within High-Security space, Alt haulers are great as they will be immune to War targets that the main account in a corporation may have to deal with otherwise. Alt-Haulers provide no protection against gankers however, so it is advisable to tank your hauler while in High Sec to survive attacks until CONCORD responds.
 
In other parts of space (Low-sec, Null-sec, and Wormhole space), CONCORD does not assist in case of your hauler being attacked by other players. In most communities, players operate under an [[Corporation Diplomacy|NBSI]] (Not Blue, Shoot It) policy for engagements, where they attack anyone who is not set as friendly according to their corporation's standings. Many corporations have processes to apply for Blue standings with their corporation, in order to avoid attacks from corp members while in their part of space.
 
EVE University has a NAP Program that corporations can apply for +5 Blue standing to Uni members. Information on how to apply can be found [[Standings request|here]]. If you want to use an Alt-hauler in Uni controlled space, you must be apart of a player corporation, in order to apply for NAP protection.
