If airports and other travel infrastructure are secure areas, why do I need Securoseal?
Access to transportation and an unlimited supply of poorly secured valuables makes travel environments attractive to criminals. While authorities and service providers do their best to provide a safe environment for you, luggage transportation systems at most airports and other travel infrastructure (both first and third world) continue to be significantly affected by criminal activity, including theft rings, smuggling activity and organised crime. Additionally, many legal systems assume travelers are responsible for the contents of their luggage if prohibited items are found unless the traveler can prove otherwise – meaning that you bear the risk of a tampering event should one occur. While this may sound sensational, criminal activity has been documented by a wide range of publicly available press reports and governmental investigations in a variety of countries.
