  Abstract
  The globalization of the economy has given increase to the number of shipping containers. The large number of shipping containers arriving at major ports makes inspecting every container impractical and therefore bears significant risks. This paper describes a solution that would monitor containers' integrity from the originating port to the destination port. Should there be an intrusion to the containers en route, the system will report the activity to its home station. The proposed system is envisioned to be secure and intrusion resistant. The proposed approach uses an implementation of Jigsaw Distributed File System (JigDFS) to further protect the container communities. This paper is the full version of extended abstract published at CSIIRW-09.
