CBP makes extensive use of cameras and video recordings at airports and land border crossings, where images of vehicles are captured. CBP processes more than a million passengers and pedestrians crossing the U.S. border on an average day, including more than 690,000 incoming land travelers. But a Microsoft Word document of CBP’s public statement, sent Monday to Washington Post reporters, included the name “Perceptics” in the title: “CBP Perceptics Public Statement.”Perceptics representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. CBP spokeswoman Jackie Wren said she was “unable to confirm” if Perceptics was the source of the breach. The official said data from travelers crossing the Canadian border were also included.
