==Introduction==
My purpose here is to introduce you to various mining op security tactics, ranging from those applicable to frigates solo mining to those for organized ops involving exhumers and barges. I will do this by discussing the three primary threats in the belt: NPC rats, can flippers, and pirate gankers. I will also limit this page to high sec mining. Low sec and null sec have their own pitfalls and perils, requiring different tactics and techniques.  
My purpose here is to introduce you to various mining op security tactics for use in high sec mining. Low sec and null sec have their own pitfalls and perils, requiring different tactics and techniques and will not be discussed here. High sec ops range from solo mining to large scale organized ops and there are four primary types of ships people mine in, frigates, cruisers, barges and exhumers, and battle ships. I will discuss the three primary threats in the belt (NPC rats, can flippers, and pirate gankers) and how to defend against them in different situations.  


Regardless of your ship type, there is one thing you should always do, fit a tank. If you are in a frig, this might be limited to a small shield booster, but fit what you can.
