Customs and Border Protection is committed to providing a broad mix of barriers, technology and personnel to secure the border, but the Trump administration's proposed border wall is very much part of those plans, a top CBP official said.

Vitiello said 654 miles of the border are currently equipped with physical barriers, including fencing and short vehicle walls that were put in place under the 2006 Secure Fence Act.
