 Hello, my name is Pablo Sanastúme, I'm responsible for the Postal Security Project at the Postal Union of the Americas being in Portugal. Postal operators provide a key public service that connects families and friends, facilitates trade all over the world, and service key allies for governments in the times of need. However, due to its reach and infrastructure, many times postal operators are used for illicit purposes, such as drug trafficking and contraband. That is why it is so important for postal operators to invest in security measures to protect themselves, their assets, their employees and clients. Security has a traditional disadvantage of being viewed primarily as a cost rather than a source of business value to an organization. At the Postal Union of the Americas being in Portugal, we like to invest in security, and we do this in different ways. For example, we have a team of regional experts that can provide assessment and solutions to designator operators. We also provide financial assistance for those who want to implement new measures and technologies, and we work closely with the Universal Postal Union to assure that many designator operators comply with the security standards and reach a level of security certification. I encourage all postal operators to seek and obtain a security certification. This can be done through the adherence of the UPUs S58 and S59 security standards. This will provide a strong base to protect all clients, staff and infrastructure. Secure the supply chain and minimize all external and internal risks. Thank you very much.
