I'm pretty sure they are. Captains always carry some kind of firearms; It's a long standing shipping tradition. (Correct me if I'm wrong here....)

I also think some ships do have security details, but it's very expensive. Being a security guard at a bank is one thing because back up / medical help is seconds away, but at sea everything is miles away - if at all. And if you get over run, your gonna spend years of your life as a prisoner. Fuck that - you couldn't pay me enough to do that.
