Dual Purpose Information
•
BUSINESS: In-transit VISIBILITY for the purposes of
contract management, planning, process tracking, risk
mitigation, documentation, etc.
•
GOVERNMENT: Process and regulatory TRANSPARENCY
for the purposes of anti-corruption, counter-terrorism,
trade processing, health and safety, etc

Commercial Data Is Critical to Security:
-
Cargo – What is being transported?
Carriers – Who is handling the cargo?
Conveyance – What is the route, how is it moving?
Commerce – Who are the parties to the transaction?

Data Mining for Threat and Risk Assessment
•
Employs a synergistic array of data mining techniques
• Knowledge based, both specific and general
• Based on rules and known facts
• Statistical patterns and profiling
• Mathematical models for risk assessment and threat
identification
• Evolutionary algorithms to detect changes in
patterns and discover new patterns

A Global Issue
•
EC & US Customs, 22 October 2002
•
“….major principles for future co-operation were stressed, most
particularly reciprocity….common standards for selection….”
•
“…. agreed… to explore…. a declaration of principle to co-operate
on a mutually acceptable container security system covering the
whole EU….”
•
WCO and IMO are making it a mandate: IMO Secretary-General,
William O’Neil, has strongly urged all parties concerned “to start
putting in place all the necessary legislative, administrative and
operational provisions needed…”.

Principles of a Successful Data Effort
•
This IS a transportation and logistics issue, not just a
maritime issue.
•
This IS NOT a compliance issue. A legal cargo can
become a lethal cargo.
•
Security should be dynamic: The port and customs
processing is a node within the process, not even the
most important focus for security.
•
Profiling should and can begin in the Importing Country
at the issuance of the purchase order from the buyer.
•
The shipper/importer should be responsible for the
process, not the carriers.
Private and Confidential
Issues for Small Importers and Exporters
• Longer lead times for moving cargoes
• Delays in trans-shipped containers
• Negative impact vs. cargo originating in direct service
countries
• Many exports to smaller US companies that are not C-TPAT
certified, and not in CSI ports
• Technology infrastructure to comply with big country data
requirements
Another hurdle to competitiveness
