ABSTRACT
The globalized economy has caused an unavoidable increase in the number of shipping containers. The gigantic number of shipping containers entering the USA on a regular basis poses a significant security risk and inspecting every container is impractical. We proposed a design of a comprehensive solution that would monitor containers' integrity from the originating port to the destination port and report any intrusion event if it has taken place; the intruded container can then be handled in an appropriate way. More important, the system itself is designed to be secure and intrusion resistant. In this paper we discuss an implementation of tamper resistance, which necessitates the design of smart containers and implementation of additional measures to ensure smart containers be tamper resistant. Moreover, this paper discusses an implementation of Jigsaw Distributed File System (JigDFS) to further protect the container communities.
