3 Introduction Rationale Risk scenario Security and trade facilitation Objectives Reduce risk Reduce impact Improve the industry

4 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

5 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

6 Facility Implementation of the IMO ISPS Code

7 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

8 Trusted Parties Authorised Economic Operators C-TPAT Red/Black Shipper etc.

9 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

10 Container Information 24-hour rule EC / WCO data model ATDI Bayplan Manifest Purchase Order etc.

11 Container Information Ports can provide data feeds as required A broad range of terminal operational data supporting security processes and logistics operational processes could also include images, radiation profile and other data

12 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

13 Radiation Detectors - Felixstowe

14 Radiation Detectors Freeport

15 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

16 Integrated Container Inspection A layered security approach integrating non-intrusive inspection and identification technologies such as: Radiographic imaging Radiation screening Automatic container identification Designed to scan high volumes of containers with minimal impact on traffic flow

17 Radiographic Imaging Portal Configuration Uses 2 x Co-60 sources and 2 x detector arrays to produce images of container contents Equipped with fast-shutter for non-stop operation Able to scan vehicles moving at speeds up to 16 km/hr Capable of scanning more than 300 vehicles per hour

18 Radiation Detection Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) Passive radiation screening Automatic, can run continuously Highest sensitivity to special nuclear materials Low false alarm rate Produces radiation profile of container

19 Container Identification Optical Character Recognition (OCR) Multiple images are collected of top, sides and rear of container OCR software attempts to read container number from each image in the set Results from all images are compared, a selection is made and a confidence value is assigned (High=>Low, A=>D) Associates container number and image set from OCR with gamma image and radiation profile

20 Example Images

21

22 Approach Layers of security 1. What s in the box? Facility (ISPS Code) Trusted parties Container information Radiation detection Container imaging 2. Status? Container monitoring location and tamper evidence

23 RFID seal & security devices Security device RFID seals

24 Sealing / Unsealing Process

25 Readers at gates

26 Readers at rail terminals

27 Readers on quay cranes

28 Smart Containers

29 Smart & Secure Container Automatically capture data, accurately and reliably Reader RFID Security Devices Wireless reading up to 100 meters Data Container ID Location Date, Time Tag ID Battery Status Security Status Environmental Status Temp, Humidity, Shock Inside of Doors Inside of Container

30 RFID ready Complete full installations in Q : China / Yantian, Hong Kong Netherlands / Rotterdam South Korea / Pusan UK / Felixstowe Preparation of next round installations underway including HPH ports in Asia, Middle East and the Americas

31 Extended data integration Cargo declarations Operational data Biometrics, etc. Container information Gamma-ray image Radiation profile Container OCR Location & tamper evidence

32 Securing the supply chain C-TPAT/AEO Manufacturer Factory Consolidation Data for targeting Road Transport Consolidator / Distribution Center Road Transport Supply chain efficiency benefits inventory management asset utilisation Port of Loading Monitor at Key Choke & Transit Points Vessel Commercial security benefits Transit Port Brand protection Reduce pilferage, damage Positioned for green lane (reduced inspections) Audit trails for isolation, recovery and learning ( inspected already quicker restarts) Vessel Port of Discharge Road/Rail Transport Mfg Distribution Center Retail Store National security benefits Reduce terrorism threats Retail Distribution Center

33 Benefits to Customs and Shippers Non-Secured Status Alerts Immediate notification via alerts of any non-secured container TSS events The timing and the recipients of alert messages can be defined Streamlined Operations Secured containers could pass more quickly through Customs border crossings Container security status can be sent to Customs in real-time (also potential for in-transit visibility to provide additional security status information) Container Security History Complete history of container security status for e-sealed containers (i.e. secured, suspect, tampered) Web-based interface for easy remote access

34 Looking Ahead Joint development and testing is essential with stakeholders government authorities shippers service providers ports ocean & other carriers technology providers

35 Our Mission To be the global market leader in port development, operations and logistics services
