Border Patrol mobile app for migrants seeking entry faces scrutiny for its lack of vetting, security
Fox News
A recent report highlighted the need to make changes to the CBP One mobile application used by noncitizens seeking entry into the United States.
The report warns of the dangers of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) One app, which was created in 2020 to schedule appointments at points of entry into the U.S. According to the CBP, the app has "increased CBP’s capacity to process migrants more efficiently and orderly while cutting out unscrupulous smugglers who endanger and profit from vulnerable migrants."

However, the recent report highlights the need for improvement to mitigate the technological risks of the app used by thousands of migrants seeking asylum. Story tips and ideas can be sent to sarah.rumpf@fox.com and on X: @s_rumpfwhitten.
