Logistics
What's the issue?
Did you know that around 90% of the world’s trade is transported in cargo containers? In 2020, world trade in goods and services amounted to US $22 trillion.
With often valuable produce transported within these containers, theft is extremely prevalent and, unfortunately, very common.
The mechanical seals protecting trade products are easily circumvented, tampered with, or substituted with counterfeit seals. When these seals are tampered with, the event often occurs at a time and place that makes detection and recovery unlikely.
The easily-adapted seals that are present in today’s industry also pose a whole lot of other cross-over challenges for cargo losses. These include corruption within the supply chain, smuggling of drugs and persons and disruptions to business continuity that created opportunities for cargo crime to thrive. At a minimum, this can delay the progress of shipments through the supply chain. At a maximum, it could result in a total loss of goods due to the breach of shipment integrity.
Where do we come in?
The Verndum Data Seal provides secure data access and storage. With this data able to be made readily available to authorities, the processing time at ports can be sped up. This data seal aids in detecting and reporting the installation and removal of container bolt seals and monitoring their integrity as the containers travel through the supply chain. It also tracks when custody changes hands, combined with any reporting that occurs immediately when at monitored locations.
It is determined that the Verndum solution equips a logistics provider with a visible and differentiable service to their customers while, at the same time, reducing time spent on manually tracking shipments and determining where and when container and contents losses occur. With this loss/damage knowledge from data in hand, future losses can be avoided by identifying the problem, location and personnel involved. From here, new procedures can be implemented quickly in real-time to eliminate the risk of reoccurrence, resulting in increased productivity, reduced insurance costs and improved product Integrity. Once enough data is collected, we can identify problems as soon as an event, procedure or activity goes out of the normal range of acceptability through data analysis.
Temperature Control Integrity
Cargo Integrity Critical challenges exist in maintaining integrity in the temperature-controlled vaccine supply chain, including accurate instructions and communications between stakeholders. Risk exists at every moment of time, across packaging, packing, transport, and unpacking. Such sensitive cargo will be vulnerable to the smallest error, variation, or discrepancy. Vaccines, specifically, are not just perishable but also subject to tight regulations transportation. Of relevance are the controls necessary with traceability and evidence of integrity throughout the journey. Where the supply chain’s integrity is disrupted through attempted or actual theft in transit, affected cargoes (and batches thereof) are likely to be considered a total loss.
Modernising Container Security Is Essential to Secure Application Development
Most traditional security tools agencies rely on, are not designed to effectively show what is going on inside and outside of a container. Temper Evident Data/Seals features are easy to inspect to facilitate regular checks at various points on route.
Custom Border Control
Using Verndum solution for border control gives you customs agency a very powerful tool to ensure safe and efficient passage for legitimate container movement. Once cargo is inspected at a border control it cannot be physically changed without clean tamper evidence being presented, Verndum can be extended to associated other logistics assets such as trailers, prime mover, driver identification and documentation, adding a much broader and real view of how a container is being transited over country borders.
Verndum protection gives a physical connection to data against a container/cargo, whatever border it may be in the world, or whatever physical state cargo is presented. Meaning at every checkpoint and random check points, cargo is identifiable on status meaning any physical changes will be quickly identified with data evidence. Verndum cannot be copied or replaced, making it the strongest tamper evident mechanism available. Insuring what enters country borders and exits out or is received by end user has arrived without being tampered or contaminated, either accidental or deliberate.
Food & Produce
To be able to trace produce to the end user is such an important requirement in today’s world to provide and share knowledge that what you are selling has integrity on which country it is from and how it was produced and what date it was harvested or produced from either from the land or sea. To stand out from inferior unsafe unscrupulous producers misleading consumers which will give your product a market edge and higher value.
Verndum can provide this solution whether you catch your harvest from the sea, grow in the fields or from farm livestock.
Food Traceability
What's the issue?
Protecting the credibility and integrity of produce, including certifying its origin, is often something that can easily be tampered with, therefore misleading consumers. Customers, consumers and end-users want proof that their product’s integrity is intact. This includes ensuring it has come from a reputable supplier and has been grown or harvested in a sustainable and environmentally safe manner along with best practices regarding animal welfare, certified processing plants, people and operations.
Where do we come in?
Applying the Verndum solution to livestock, crops, and seafood will protect the integrity and credibility of the product. These tags can identify the species, when it was harvested, the location and when it was processed. Every step taken in logistics is recorded until it arrives at the end-user. This gives consumers confidence that their product is genuine and integrity is intact. In return, it provides primary producers credibility that their product is a quality, sustainably produced or harvested product. Helping primary producers protect their product improves productivity and efficiency and foils illegal operations in supplying fake and inferior products sold off as premium produce or false claims of origin. In return, this will make genuine primary producers’ products more valuable and sort after in the marketplace.
Verndum can be applied to any industry

Medical Doping
What's the issue?
The integrity of a specimen is vital in the medical industry, as tampering with medical substances can cause incorrect results, which could change the outcome of events (such as doping in sport). Specimen and other medical equipment can be compromised, altered, or stolen without proper security. Without accountability, medical doping can run free throughout the sporting industry.
Where do we come in?
The Verndum solution provides specimen integrity in any environment or situation and the integrity of vessels by being able to join real-life testing activities to data being used through the collection of specimens data and security. Uploading images of a test sample before transporting it to be tested can track any breaches with both a physical and data presence of integrity. If there are any changes in the specimen taken recorded on arrival to the lab, it’s clear that tampering has played a part.
The complete solution can track the time and location of where the sample is taken and track vessel integrity from supplier to being supplied, receiving in the field, and being used.
The evidence entered the Verndum solution is conclusive, therefore eliminating openings to compromise the integrity of a specimen.
