EACC Florida Task Force Transportation, Logistics & Customs I Cargo Theft & Freight Fraud – Operational Best Practices for Today’s Supply Chains

MEMBERS & INVITATION ONLY

Join us for the next Meeting of EACC Florida’s Task Force Transportation, Logistics & Customs

Recent warnings from the International Union of Marine Insurance and the Transported Asset Protection Association underscore the growing scale and sophistication of cargo theft and digitally enabled freight fraud across global supply chains.

As logistics networks become more interconnected and technology-driven, exposure is evolving — from traditional theft to increasingly complex schemes involving identity manipulation, forged documentation, and digital deception.

In line with the Task Force’s mission to foster peer-level exchange and the sharing of practical operational best practices, EACC Florida will dedicate a three-part series to examining how public authorities, service providers, and industry actors are strengthening controls, enhancing coordination, and managing risk in real time.

The first meeting will focus on Public Sector Perspectives and feature a government or port authority representative, this session will explore current cargo theft and freight fraud patterns, enforcement realities, and public-private coordination mechanisms.
