Every day, your mailroom remains one of the most vulnerable entry points for threats. MailSecur, delivers an enterprise-scalable solution that brings 4D T-ray imaging technology for threat and contraband detection to every site — from corporate offices and executive protection programs to government facilities, to state and local correctional facilities and public safety agencies.
SAFETY ACT DESIGNATED TECHNOLOGY
MailSecur is the first desktop terahertz screening system to receive SAFETY ACT Designated status as a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology (QATT) by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
The Act provides powerful liability protections to:
- Companies that develop and sell a Qualified Anti-Terrorism Technology (QATT).
- Organizations that deploy and rely on those designated technologies.
This means both RaySecur and MailSecur customers have an added layer of legal protection should a terrorist attack occur.

Why MailSecur T-ray versus X-ray
MailSecur Product FAQs
What is terahertz (T-ray) technology?
Terahertz frequencies (THz) or T-rays are simply high frequency radio waves. T-rays are significantly more sensitive than millimeter-wave and X-ray systems for detecting low density materials like powders and liquids. Terahertz imaging has broad applications for non-intrusive security screening to detect hidden threats and contraband. While much research has been focused on the terahertz domain over the past several decades, RaySecur is the first company to pioneer widespread commercial applications of terahertz systems.
How is T-ray different from X-ray?
T-ray is non-ionizing and safe, while X-ray generates harmful ionizing radiation requiring specialized permits and licenses. A typical X-ray systems also uses hundreds of pounds of lead shielding to contain the radiation. In contrast, RaySecur’s T-ray systems contain no lead and are approximately 10X smaller than a conventional X-ray. T-ray provides dynamic, real-time, live video imaging that reveals concealed threats in motion, while X-ray systems produce static pictures. T-rays are also approximately 300X more sensitive than X-ray to detect low density materials like powders and liquids.
What does "4D screening" mean?
4D screening captures length, width, depth, and live motion, allowing operators to detect powders, liquids, and other anomalies that static images cannot reveal.
Is MailSecur safe to use in an office or mailroom?
Yes. MailSecur uses safe T-rays that do not generate any ionizing radiation. MailSecur does not require any radiation barriers, special access-controlled rooms, or radiation safety licenses and permits. MailSecur can be deployed in any office environment and setup in minutes, just like a copier or printer.
