"Will Concord protect my POS from attacks?
ATM Yes. Anyone who shoots at your High-Sec POS will get Concordokken.
Even if the attacking force issue a war declaration to yours, the POS won't
become a war target. I tested with an alt on numerous occasions and Concord
blew him up faster than my POS guns could track him.
However, I haven't found any official announcement explaining if this change
was intended. It wasn't like that before Revelations. Some say it's a bug that will
get fixed, leaving POS vulnerable to attacks again. I don't know if that true, but
just in case, I deployed some guns in my POS. I advice you to do the same."

Dunno how long ago that was the case, is it still?

i think they're pretty open to being assaulted, eve uni had theirs attacked by RVB and the eve cemetary has been assaulted by goonies multiple times.

So yes, i think that was patched.

During peacetime, yes.

During wartime, no. Otherwise POS' would be invincible.

Remember: Declaring war doesnt mean that the war is active... you have to wait 24 hours after war is declared before the games agro rules are removed.

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

If you wardec someone, their POS will become your valid target. I know a couple of corporations that specialize in finding valuable POSes and shooting them for profit (however boring that might sound).

Some tips about what is considered to be an interesting target:

- Medium tower without defense (even it had some guns on it, a well organized gang of a dozen or so battleships can grind easily through it without losses)
- multiple laboratories in the POS and the POS is located in a highsec system that has no station (means that they could have original blueprints in the laboratories of whatever is being researched)
- one or more corp hangar arrays (usually contains isotopes, since you need a lot of them to run a POS, locally produced PI fuel or materials for production)
- subsystem assembly arrays with corp hangar arrays (juicy t3 materials)
- you'll get a bonus if there's an empty Orca parked inside the shields (happens all the time)
