Asset safety is a mean of mitigating the risk associated with storing items inside destructable structures, and serves as an intermediate "inventory" for player assets that were stored in a player-owned structure that has been destroyed or unanchored (subject to certain limitations). Items in Asset Safety do not exist in a physical location until delivered to a new location. Items placed in Asset Safety will be bundled in an Asset Safety container. In the case of Corporate Asset Safety, the Asset Safety wrap will preserve any corporate hangar organization.

Asset Safety is available in all Upwell Structures (such as Citadels and [[Engineering Complexes]]), but not other player-owned structures, such as [[player-owned starbases]].

Asset Safety exists on both a personal and corporate level, though it functions similarly in either case. Once Asset Safety has been activated, regardless of method, it cannot be reversed, and items must then be delivered according to normal Asset Safety restrictions.

While Asset Safety technically exists in wormhole systems, in practice it merely causes assets in wormhole structures to drop in large containers when their containing structures are destroyed. Unless such items are contained in password-protected containers, anyone may take any items from containers dropped by structures in wormhole space. Players may also launch assembled ships from these containers.

The forsaken fortress update released on 26th May 2020 introduced the Abandoned state for upwell structures that have not consumed fuel within a seven day window.

When a structure enters the abandoned state:


*The structure will have no reinforcement phases, meaning it can be destroyed in one session (Damage caps will still be in effect. If a structure is currently in a reinforced state at the moment the abandonment timer expires, then that reinforce timer will operate as normal but no new reinforcement phases will be allowed).

*Items will not automatically be put into asset safety when the structure is destroyed.
 
Onlining a service module in a structure that is in the abandoned state will return it to full power, restoring its abilities provided that the structure is not damaged. Anyone with assets in a low power structure will receive an automated message 48 hours prior to the structure entering abandoned state, informing them of their ability to manually move their items to asset safety.

Faction Fortizars, converted from old player Outposts in 2018, can never enter the abandoned state. This maintains the safety of items these structures provided prior to their conversion.
