There are a variety of cyber security "events" that your business may be subject to including cyber attacks, ransomware attacks, suspicious activity, internal security locks or updates to your current system. All of these events, even though they may not include the perpetration of a crime, may block you from adequately and compliantly submitting data to US Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
Technology is an essential element that allows for the facilitation of international trade to flow through the United States with data provided by the trade community to U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Partner Government Agencies.
If a member of the trade community is a victim of a cybersecurity attack that impacts the company’s ability to transmit transactions to CBP, CBP has identified the following information for reporting such an event and follow-up steps.
