A carrying strap comprising:

• a first flexible fabric or webbing, the first flexible fabric or webbing having a first lateral fold and a second lateral fold;
• a security panel assembly coupled to the first flexible fabric or webbing, the security panel assembly arranged within the first and second lateral folds, the security panel assembly comprising a netting having at least one first monofilament polymeric fiber arranged as a plurality of coupled and bonded monofilament polymeric fiber crossings, each coupled and bonded monofilament fiber crossing comprising at least two sections of the at least one monofilament polymeric fiber coupled and bonded to each other;
• at least one second monofilament or multifilament fiber, cable, thread or yarn arranged laterally to the security panel assembly and further arranged within the first lateral fold or the second lateral fold of the first flexible fabric or webbing;
• and
• a second flexible fabric or webbing coupled over the first flexible fabric or webbing or the security panel assembly to enclose the security panel assembly between the first flexible fabric or webbing and the second flexible fabric or webbing;
• wherein the carrying strap has a cut-resistance level to withstand an applied cutting force up to 3,000 grams applied over 20 mm laterally across the carrying strap.

A carrying strap comprising:

• a first flexible fabric or webbing;
• a security panel assembly coupled to the first flexible fabric or webbing, the security panel assembly comprising:
• a first flexible material layer having a first side and a plurality of edges;
• and
• a polymeric fiber matrix arranged on the first side of the first flexible material layer, the polymeric fiber matrix comprising a netting having at least one first monofilament polymeric fiber arranged as a plurality of coupled and bonded monofilament polymeric fiber crossings, each coupled and bonded monofilament fiber crossing comprising at least two sections of the at least one first monofilament polymeric fiber coupled and bonded to each other;
• a second flexible material layer arranged adjacent to the polymeric fiber matrix and coupled to the first side of the first flexible material layer with a plurality of stitches, or with an adhesive, or with both a plurality of stitches and an adhesive;
• a second flexible fabric or webbing coupled over the first flexible fabric or webbing or the security panel assembly to enclose the security panel assembly between the first flexible fabric or webbing and the second flexible fabric or webbing;
• and
• at least one second monofilament or multifilament fiber, cable, thread or yarn either arranged laterally to the security panel assembly and within the first lateral fold or the second lateral fold of the first flexible fabric or webbing or arranged centrally between the first and second lateral folds and between the first flexible fabric or webbing and the second flexible fabric or webbing.
