~~Racial standings required~~ to anchor the POS tower are based on the ~~shown~~ security level of the system (0.0 to 1.0) and not the "true-sec" rating of the system. Even if the true-sec of a 0.5 system is 0.48, your corporation will still need 5.00+ standings in order to anchor the POS tower.

==Standings and Sovereignty Restrictions==

In order to anchor a POS tower in any system that is 0.4 up through 0.7, the corporation that is putting up the POS tower must have high standings with the empire faction in control of the system. These racial standing requirements are based on the security level of the system (0.0 to 1.0) and not the "true-sec" rating of the system. Even if the true-sec of a 0.5 system is 0.48, your corporation will still need 5.00+ standings in order to anchor the POS tower.

Standings are re-calculated daily at downtime and is a straight average of the unmodified racial standings of everyone who has been in the corporation for at least seven downtimes. If a pilot does not have any standings at all with the racial faction, then they are not counted towards the standings. If a pilot has been in the corporation for fewer then seven days / downtimes, then they are not counted towards the standings.

To see which pilots are affecting the standings, go into the Corporate UI, the "Standings" tab and look at the "Liked By" tab. Right-click on a faction where the corporation has postive standings and choose "Show Composition". You will be given a list of all of the pilots who are currently affecting your standings with that faction.

This is why corporations who are doing hi-sec POS towers will sometimes have to remove alts and members from the corporation who are dragging down their standings before putting up additional POS towers. It is also possible to buy existing corporations with high standings and anchor POS towers before the standings drop at the next downtime (or after seven days in some situations).

===0.8 to 1.0 Security Systems===

* No ~~POSs~~ may be anchored in 0.8 to 1.0 ~~space~~

* No POS towers may be anchored in 0.8, 0.9 or 1.0 systems

===0.5 to 0.7 Security Systems===

* Requires standings with the faction that owns the region

Requires standings with the faction that owns the region. If you are unsure as to which faction controls the system, you can look at the Sovereignty in the upper left corner of the screen. Or you can use 3rd party tools like [http://evemaps.dotlan.net/ DotLan maps] which have a sovereignty overlay.

* 0.5 system requires 5.00+

* 0.6 system requires 6.00+
