In 2021 alone, the USPIS and the ATF analyzed 263,000 pieces of suspicious mail and investigated more than 6,300 mail threat incidents.
For many businesses, the concept of security is often associated with theft and vandalism. Security budgets, therefore, are targeted towards surveillance systems, access controls, and alarms.
But herein lies a problem. Some threats require more than the traditional security solutions to detect and manage. One of them is mail security.
According to a recent report from RaySecur, a company that provides mail and package threat detection solutions, in 2021 alone, the United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) analyzed 263,000 pieces of suspicious mail and investigated more than 6,300 mail threat incidents.
