IDScan.net, a company specializing in identity verification and fraud prevention, has announced its membership in the Southwest Transportation Security Council, the Northeast Cargo Security Council, and the Midwest Cargo Security Council.
This decision aligns with the company's dedication to enhancing cargo security and tackling identity fraud within the logistics and freight sectors.
Collaboration with Security Experts
The membership allows IDScan.net to join forces with industry professionals, law enforcement, and security experts to confront emerging issues in cargo theft, identity fraud, and supply chain vulnerabilities. These councils are recognized for uniting key stakeholders to advance transportation security through information sharing, education, and best practices.
"Joining these councils brings us closer to the front lines of cargo and logistics security," said Jimmy Roussel, CEO of IDScan.net. "Identity fraud plays a major role in organized cargo theft, and our technology is built to help organizations verify identities quickly and accurately. We’re excited to share our expertise and collaborate with other members to strengthen security across the industry."
Addressing Rising Fraud
Fraudulent IDs are often used at security gates, and once cargo departs, retrieval is challenging
This move comes as the supply chain sector faces increasing fraud activity. IDScan.net’s 2026 Cargo and Logistics ID Fraud Report highlighted significant increases in identity fraud attempts, showing a 213% rise from 2023 to 2024, and a further 30% increase in 2025. The report noted that Q2 2025 experienced the highest recorded fraud rate, with attempts soaring 75% above historical averages.
Cargo theft schemes are becoming more complex, involving counterfeit IDs, stolen identities, and organized criminal efforts. Without robust identity verification systems, logistics facilities are at risk. Fraudulent IDs are often used at security gates, and once cargo departs, retrieval is challenging. By verifying driver identities prior to shipment release, logistics companies can diminish fraudulent pickups and boost supply chain accountability.
Enhancing Operational Security
“Verified IDs are a must if you want to protect yourself against theft and liability,” states the Senior Security Manager of a global logistics provider.
Through its involvement in these regional security councils, IDScan.net will participate in educational initiatives, engage in knowledge-sharing, and collaborate on strategies to minimize fraud and enhance operational security across the supply chain.

Supply chain vulnerabilities
“Joining these councils brings us closer to the front lines of cargo and logistics security,” said Jimmy Roussel, CEO of IDScan.net. “Identity fraud plays a major role in organized cargo theft, and our technology is built to help organizations verify identities quickly and accurately. We’re excited to share our expertise and collaborate with other members to strengthen security across the industry.”
The announcement comes amid rapidly rising fraud activity across the supply chain sector. According to IDScan.net’s 2026 Cargo and Logistics ID Fraud Report, identity fraud attempts in cargo and logistics operations increased 213% from 2023 to 2024 and climbed another 30% in 2025. The report also found that Q2 2025 marked the highest quarterly fraud rate ever recorded, with fraudulent ID attempts rising 75% above the historical average.
Strong identity verification
Cargo theft and related fraud schemes are becoming increasingly sophisticated, often involving high-quality counterfeit IDs, stolen identities, and coordinated criminal networks. Without strong identity verification controls in place, logistics facilities can become vulnerable targets. In many cases, theft attempts begin with a fraudulent ID presented at a security gate. Once cargo leaves the property, recovery can be extremely difficult.
By verifying driver identities before shipments are released, logistics companies can reduce the risk of fraudulent pickups and improve accountability throughout the supply chain. IDScan.net’s solutions help organizations mitigate these risks by confirming individuals are who they claim to be and are authorized before access is granted.
Improving operational security
“Verified IDs are a must if you want to protect yourself against theft and liability,” states the Senior Security Manager of a global logistics provider.
Through participation in the Southwest, Northeast, and Midwest Cargo Security Councils, IDScan.net will engage in knowledge-sharing initiatives, support educational programs, and collaborate on strategies to reduce fraud and improve operational security across the supply chain.
