CBP Use of Force Statistics
"U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) is charged with enforcing the nation's laws while protecting the civil rights and civil liberties of every individual with whom we interact.

These data reflect individual uses of force, not incidents, by CBP law enforcement personnel to include U.S. Border Patrol agents, CBP officers, and air and marine interdiction agents. There may be multiple uses of force applied during an incident."

CBP Directive 3340-049: Border Search of Electronic Devices Containing Information
"To provide guidance and standard operating procedures for searching, reviewing, retaining, and sharing information contained in computers, disks, drives, tapes, mobile phones and other communication devices, cameras, music and other media players, and any other electronic or digital devices, encountered by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) at the border, both inbound and outbound, to ensure compliance with customs, immigration, and other laws that CBP is authorized to enforce. These searches are part of CBP's long-standing practice and are essential to enforcing the law at the U.S. border. Searches of electronic devices help detect evidence relating to terrorism and other national security matters, human and bulk cash smuggling, contraband, and child pornography. They can also reveal information about financial and commercial crimes, such as those relating to copyright, trademark and export control violations. Finally, searches at the border are often integral to a determination of admissibility under the immigration laws."

CBP Air AIPS Guide: System Identified Errors and Manifest Sufficiency Rates
"This guide serves to describe the criteria used and the manner in which CBP (Customs and Border Protection) evaluates APIS (Advance Passenger Information System) manifest's compliance. APIS manifests are evaluated for submission timeliness, manifest completeness (syntactic quality, record quality), data element sufficiency (quality), as well as compliance with APIS regulation rule sets (quality). This guide does not purport to address every possible circumstance under which CBP may issue a penalty in connection with this legal requirement, but is intended as general guidance to assist persons responsible for complying with the AIPS regulations. This document does not create or confer any right or benefit on any person or party, private or public. [...] Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) regulations require APIS manifests to be submitted to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for all commercial aircraft arriving from or departing for a foreign port or place. In addition, APIS regulations require that electronic manifests relative to travelers (passengers and crew) be submitted within specific timeframes. Compliant Air APIS manifest submissions are achieved through either of two submission methods: 1) Interactive and Non-interactive United Nations/Electronic Data Interchange for Administration, Commerce, and Trade (UN/EDIFACT) submissions, or 2) Non-interactive eAPIS submissions. eAPIS is a web portal enabling the user to create, manage, and submit APIS manifests. Air APIS submissions through UN/EDIFACT or the eAPIS web portal (https://eapis.cbp.dhs.gov) work to fulfill APIS reporting requirements."

CBP Trade Strategy Fiscal Years 2009-2013
"U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) works to prevent terrorists and terrorist weapons from entering the U.S. while effectively facilitating the flow of legitimate imports and people. The safety and security of international trade and the prevention of terrorism are complementary objectives and inextricably linked. The intent of CBP's Trade Strategy reflects the critical responsibility of enforcing U.S. trade laws while ensuring compliant trade flows into the United States. By fostering a safe and fair international trade process, interdicting harmful and inadmissible goods. And protecting the economic security of our industry, the Trade Strategy strengthens our ability to address national and economic security priorities and advances our ability to meet CBP's mission. […] Given the growth and the risk associated with international trade, the challenge is clear-CBP must facilitate legitimate imports while protecting our Nation's economy and people from unfair trade practices, illicit commercial enterprises, and unsafe imports. To direct an effective trade facilitation and enforcement approach, CBP focuses its actions and resources around priority trade issues that pose a significant risk to the U.S. economy, customers, and stakeholders."

2020 U.S. Border Patrol Strategy
From the Message from the Chief: "After the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, the Border Patrol underwent significant change; doubling our workforce and our resources. As a result, we calibrated our strategy to allocate these resources based on detailed threat and risk assessments. This process led to the risk-based approach used in the 2012-2016 'Border Patrol Strategic Plan.' Now, at the core of the 2020 'U.S. Border Patrol Strategy' is a holistic, innovative approach to achieving Operational Control (OPCON) of the border. This document introduces the three essential elements of OPCON: Situational Awareness -- collecting and assessing information and integrating that intelligence into our operations; Impedance and Denial -- stopping illegal crossings or slowing them down to allow additional response time; and Response and Resolution -- rapidly responding to threats determined in the areas of highest risk. This plan expands the OPCON concept to include a path for measuring and assessing our performance, and improving our ability to clearly articulate our status and progress."
