About the content
Food defense is a program of protective measures to mitigate situations of intentional or malicious contamination in food. Food Fraud is responsible for identifying and evaluating potential weaknesses in the process to prevent economically motivated fraud from occurring.
The existence of these programs within the food industry and commerce is fundamental to guarantee a safe food supply for consumers, in addition to brand integrity and continuity. However, execution of both programs is often complex and requires knowledge and expertise from the food safety team.
In this presentation, Cathy M. Crawford shares how your company can improve the prevention of any intentional attacks on its product, its brand and its suppliers.
