Intermodal Containers Transportation: How to Deal with Threats?

摘要

This paper provides an overview of the port container inspection techniques and procedures (standardized security procedures) relating to the detection of illicit material in containers. These procedures affect the duration of the containers transportation periods in different parts of the transport chain, according to the 2002 Container Security Initiative (CSI) regulations. The main object of this work - to demonstrate the inability of standard systems and associated technologies to deal with current threats and to propose solutions that are in line with the "intelligent containers" worldwide initiative.
