Why Mail and Parcel Security Expertise Is Most Critical During The Holiday Season Volume Increases
Mail center security is a critical vulnerability, and often an unaddressed security gap, for major companies, prominent individuals, government agencies, and other organizations. The mail center represents a way for individuals to penetrate an organization without ever stepping foot inside. According to the annual SoBran Mail Security Benchmarking Survey, a third of major corporations report receiving mail-borne threats annually and may receive more than one. Corporate mailrooms are particularly vulnerable to dangerous physical, chemical, and biological threats. Because they are entry points into facilities, mailrooms require more highly trained personnel operating specialized mail screening equipment to detect threats and intercept them before they can harm employees and visitors. Security issues continue in the form of questionable letters or package bombs, chemical / biological/radiological threats, and mail theft.
Even the best screening programs can fail to meet standards that protect personnel and infrastructures. Beyond cameras and security guards, the risks of receiving tainted mail continue. Liability issues and negative exposure ensue. White powders are found in more than half of mailroom items deemed potentially dangerous. Advanced screening and technology are critical components to ensure a safe delivery process. Consider the consequences if your employees become exposed, your business could face inspections, citations, negligence, or employee lawsuits.
Mail screening services protect critical operations and personnel. The Millennium Group is uniquely positioned as a core business-managed mail services firm providing both highly trained personnel on-site and industry-leading off-site mail and package screening services.
