The threat is no longer just from opportunist criminals. Today, organized crime rings are operating globally and using increasingly violent attacks on vehicles, premises and personnel to achieve their aims. The Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) represents businesses fighting back against cargo crime that want to use real-time intelligence and the latest preventive measures to protect goods in the supply chain. TAPA is a unique forum that unites global manufacturers, logistics providers, freight carriers, law enforcement agencies, and other stakeholders with the common aim of reducing losses from international supply chains.
