High-value asset protection
Protect product integrity and custody across consequential journeys. Cortrex Systems helps teams establish what happened to a high-value product and determine what response the evidence supports.
Explore a Protection PilotRequest a Complimentary Exposure ReviewStart with Cortrex Advisory™ to identify the evidence gaps and controls worth testing. Cortrex Secure™ helps protect the product and gather evidence. Cortrex Sentinel™ is designed to assess that evidence and support a decision. Cortrex Digital GSOC™ is a proposed managed service for analyst review and response coordination. Choose the combination that fits your operation; advisory can stand alone.

A shipment can arrive on time while a carton has been opened, custody has changed, or damaging exposure has gone unnoticed. Late or incomplete evidence narrows response options and makes responsibility harder to establish.
Estimated annual U.S. cargo-theft losses, according to a DHS estimate cited by NICB.
Estimated theft losses in CargoNet’s 2025 U.S. and Canada analysis—60% above its 2024 comparison.
Sources: NICB: Cargo Theft and Verisk CargoNet: 2025 theft trends, January 21, 2026. These estimates have different scopes and are not additive. Neither represents a universal shipment-loss rate or all damage and indirect costs.
Beyond the product loss, failures can mean replacement and expedited freight, investigation effort, disputed responsibility, production disruption, and missed customer commitments. Product-level evidence helps focus the next decision: what happened, how confident are we, and can an intervention still help?
One protection continuum
Our focus is high-value shipments moving through complex logistics networks, with warehouse custody and receiving as connected parts of the journey.
Package and asset integrity across FTL, LTL, carrier changes, and critical handoffs.
Explore shipment protection →Evidence around selected assets, vulnerable staging, loading, and authorized movement.
Explore warehouse custody →Receipt exceptions, discrepancies, and evidence continuity for high-value inbound products.
Explore receiving integrity →Follow the evidence through outbound fulfillment, returns, repair, and recovery. Explore forward and reverse logistics →
Physical protection, packaging integrity, and connected sensing bring evidence closer to the protected asset. Design around the access, condition, handling, and custody events that matter to your operation.
Explore Secure →Contextual intelligence and operational decision support connect available evidence, operating constraints, and human judgment. Assess risk and evidence confidence separately to guide practical next actions.
Explore Sentinel →Together, Secure and Sentinel connect the physical event to a more actionable understanding of risk. Cortrex Secure™ and Cortrex Sentinel™ can be explored separately or together, subject to technical fit and agreed scope. Cortrex Digital GSOC™ is a proposed managed service in which analysts would review exceptions and coordinate response. Its scope, delivery capacity and capabilities would need to be confirmed and validated.
Sentinel’s current demonstrator uses fictional data. Production integrations, broader conversational features, and automation remain in development; staffed 24/7 monitoring and autonomous intervention are not offered as verified capabilities. Secure configurations require validation. Deployment requirements, available capabilities, and technical integrations are established during engagement scoping.
Evaluate time to detect and the share of alerts supported by useful evidence.
Measure verified integrity exceptions, investigation effort, and unnecessary escalation.
Evaluate time to verify, feasible response choices, and completed actions.
Compare avoided net loss and operating benefit with the full cost per protected shipment or asset.
These are intended outcomes to evaluate through an agreed engagement, not established Cortrex performance results or guarantees. Calculator scenarios are hypothetical; use your own baseline and full program costs.
Explore the Protection Economics Model →Start with the decision you need to make. An exposure review helps identify what you know, what evidence is missing, and whether further assessment makes sense. A pilot tests a bounded approach. An economics assessment examines the assumptions behind a deployment decision.
An introductory discovery conversation to identify exposure questions, evidence gaps, and possible next steps. This is not a completed formal security audit.
