Security is a concept that can be associated with many perceptions, sensations and feelings, it varies according to the context in which it is used, however, it is natural for everyone to seek some degree of security in what they do every day. Due to this, modern societies have a large number of strategies that seek reliable and adequate security levels to carry out all kinds of actions in a harmonious way.
Security in the transport of goods by companies has become a necessity; Avoiding theft and loss is essential to optimally achieve a logistics process and thus maintain business stability.
In the field of logistics, surveillance and control are the two factors on which security rests, since their impact is measured in higher levels of tranquility and risk mitigation. In this sense, today there are a large number of technological solutions that allow the monitoring of the different activities that are carried out throughout the processes of transformation of raw materials, distribution and commercialization.
Safety is a key aspect in the performance and efficiency of the maritime-logistics-port sector, which together generates more than 200,000 direct and indirect jobs in the country. According to what the general manager of EULEN, Antonio Pérez Díaz, mentions, in this area it is of vital importance that each process that is carried out is in such a way that they are safe. Security creates a climate of trust that makes transfer times and productivity more efficient.
In order for a company to adequately maintain a competitive level, it must provide modern and safe infrastructure, since an unsafe infrastructure can cause irreparable damage and, in this sense, generate delays in operations.
Private security companies have faced great challenges in recent years, as organized crime has developed technologies ranging from access to GPS systems to laser tracking of transport merchandise.
For these reasons, in security matters, it is no longer enough to have strict trust controls for staff, as in the past; professional security companies have had to develop attack prevention technologies in order to provide a comprehensive service that guarantees the distribution process.
