SPONSOR FOCUS: Smiths Detection shows how to guard against dangerous deliveries

A whitepaper and video produced by security specialists Smiths Detection, explains how organisations can plan for the worst case scenarios involving the delivery of threats concealed in incoming mail packages and parcels.

The paper - Mail Threats: How to Plan for the Worst - and video (click here to see on YouTube) serve to explore various situations facilities may encounter and how the potential consequences can be overcome by implementing one or more screening methods that are customised to address the risk profile a facility may be exposed to.
