The future of transport and logistics security
Global trade and e-commerce are driving record levels of growth for transport and logistics companies, creating unprecedented opportunity - and equally significant risk. Every day, millions of goods move across borders, but as supply chains expand, vulnerabilities multiply.
The sector faces rising theft, geopolitical tension, and growing regulatory requirements such as the Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) standards. At the same time, the industry is under increasing pressure to reduce its environmental footprint and contribute to Net Zero targets.
Traditional, fragmented security systems are no longer sufficient. To protect high-value assets, ensure compliance, and enhance efficiency, businesses need intelligent, end-to-end transport security that integrates people, technology, and data for real-time situational awareness and proactive risk management.
