High Value Cargo / Shadow Service

Any Logistic Operator is under continuous threat of theft, fraud and illegal immigration. This cannot be effectively monitored or detected by use of conventional CCTV.

Corporate Surveillance offers shadow service with operatives following the High Value Cargo in transit covertly, or overtly with the knowledge of the driver. This service protects your assets in areas of high crime, at rest periods and service stations from being hijacked or tampered with. Controlled by our specialist operatives from start to finish.

Despite the application of sophisticated security measures by national carriers and authorities significant losses of high value occur through theft and misappropriation. This can include the theft of an entire container that has been illegally removed from a port or terminal area (often with the collusion of others) The stolen goods are often removed or cross loaded into other vehicles not far from the area of the port, then the empty container is abandoned.

Despite the use of customs and other security seals it is not unknown for “sealed” containers to be found empty or the cargo exchanged with worthless material. One of the main difficulties faced when investigating such losses is establishing when and where the losses actually occurred. You now have a solution. The Corporate Security teams can fit into the logistic chain, giving a new layer of security surveillance monitoring for high value or sensitive cargo shipments.

All tracking is fully reported with daily or hourly reports. Useful data includes date and time stamped audio/video images indicating where, when and who opened container doors.
