The identification and tracking of shipping container based threats is a particularly complex challenge due to the multi-jurisdictional nature of international maritime shipping, the distributed nature of the shipping container supply chain that comprises an ever-changing constellation of many hundreds of thousands of manufacturers, distributors and other parties, and, the resulting disparate data sources that must be integrated to draw actionable conclusions. In this paper, we will describe the challenges facing both Government and Industry with regard to tracking containers in a cost effective manner. We will also discuss a number of ongoing initiatives designed to overcome some of these challenges.
