Cybersecurity for trucking and logistics companies

Protect the accounts and systems that keep freight moving.

Your operation depends on email, dispatch, customer communication, load boards, payment relationships, cloud applications, and outside vendors. We independently evaluate the safeguards surrounding those systems and show leadership what needs attention first-without replacing your existing IT provider.

Why it matters

A security incident does not have to touch a truck to stop the operation.

A compromised mailbox can redirect a payment. A stolen dispatch credential can expose shipment information. An abandoned employee account may retain access to a load board or carrier portal. A public remote-access service may give an attacker another place to look. And a backup that has never been tested may not help when dispatch needs it most.

Carrier and company impersonation

Attackers can copy company names, domains, logos, FMCSA notices, and familiar business language to create believable requests. Email-authentication gaps and lookalike domains can make those messages harder to distinguish from legitimate communications.

Dispatch and TMS access

Dispatch and Transportation Management System accounts often sit at the center of customer, driver, route, and shipment activity. The firm should know which users have access, whether MFA is available, and how access is removed after turnover.

Invoicing and factoring fraud

A convincing request to change bank information, factoring instructions, or payment details can create an immediate financial loss. Email controls, verification procedures, and account protections must work together.

Load boards and carrier portals

Load-board, broker, customer, and regulatory portals expand the number of identities the company must manage. Shared accounts and unclear ownership make it harder to determine who can access what.

Public remote access

VPNs, remote desktops, administrative portals, and vendor-access services may be visible from the internet. Public visibility does not prove vulnerability, but it should be intentional, restricted, patched, and monitored.

Recovery and operational continuity

The important question is not simply whether backups exist. Leadership needs evidence that essential information can be restored in time to support dispatch, billing, payroll, and customer communication.

Industry signal

Fraud increasingly begins with a believable business identity.

FMCSA continues to publish warnings involving fake portals, SAFER impersonation, phishing messages, bogus compliance notices, and fraudulent carrier activity. These schemes reinforce a practical question: can your employees and business partners distinguish your company's real domains, email, and portals from an imitation?

Example exposure finding

An example of the evidence we translate.

This is an example only; it does not describe every trucking company.

Already have an IT provider? Good.

The Business Security Baseline is not a replacement for managed IT. It independently verifies the safeguards leadership believes are in place and gives the provider a prioritized set of evidence-backed findings to address.

Leadership receives

  • The bottom line
  • Safeguards observed
  • Gaps requiring attention
  • Items not verified
  • The first three actions

The IT provider receives

  • Observed state
  • Supporting evidence
  • Expected state
  • Recommended correction
  • Suggested verification method

What this assessment does not cover

The Business Security Baseline evaluates public exposure and business IT safeguards. It is not a vehicle cybersecurity assessment, telematics penetration test, electronic-control-unit review, cargo-security service, DOT compliance audit, or safety assessment.

Questions from trucking and logistics teams

Do you need access to our trucks?

No. The Exposure Review uses public information only, and the Business Security Baseline focuses on business IT safeguards and agreed evidence sources. It does not connect to vehicles or vehicle systems.

Can the free review access our TMS or load-board accounts?

No. It does not log in to internal or third-party applications. It can identify public signals and services that may require confirmation.

We already have an MSP. Is this duplicative?

No. The assessment independently verifies important safeguards and produces findings your existing provider can address.

What does the $1,995 price cover?

It covers the defined Business Security Baseline for companies with up to 10 users. Larger environments receive a confirmed price after a short scoping conversation.

Does the assessment certify DOT or regulatory compliance?

No. It is a cybersecurity assessment, not a certification, legal opinion, or transportation-safety audit.
