‘Effective cargo security measures help identify and mitigate risks early in the process’

Neetu Chadha, Associate- Director, Air Exports, WIZ says, “Cargo security is an important aspect throughout the entire supply chain to prevent theft, damage, and pilferages in various stages, from warehousing to terminals and air transport. Effective security measures can protect goods and maintain operational integrity. The entire industry must adhere to the guidelines set by IATA and TSA. Compliance not only avoids legal repercussions but also ensures that safety standards are met, protecting employees and the public. Effective cargo security measures help identify and mitigate risks early in the process. By taking security measures and adhering to guidelines from regulatory bodies, companies can protect their assets and foster a culture of safety and reliability within the industry. Security breaches can tarnish a company’s reputation, leading to loss of business and customer trust. Technology such as GPS tracking can enhance cargo security.”
