Why Perimeter Security Matters in This Industry

Implementing robust security for transportation infrastructure is essential for multiple reasons:

The Threat Is Growing

Crime at ports countrywide is rising compared to previous years. For example, the Port Authority Police Department reports burglaries were up 200% in the first quarter of 2024 versus that of 2023. Burglaries at the Los Angeles port doubled between 2021 and 2023, while overall property crime nearly tripled.

Regulatory Compliance Is a Must

Railways, mass transit systems, freight yards, and ports fall under both local and state jurisdictions. Because they’re considered critical infrastructure, many are also subject to federal laws. Companies in this industry can incur costly financial penalties for violations.

No Cargo Is Safe from Targeting

The second quarter of 2024 saw a decrease in theft of consumer goods like electronics, footwear, and vehicle necessities. Instead, thieves increasingly targeted skincare products, liquor, and vitamins and supplements. Experts estimate criminals stole $68.5 million in cargo for the quarter.
