Preparing for the NMFC changes set for July 19, 2025? Access resources, learn more at www.nmfcchanges.com
If you believe a truck should be as secure as a bank website from cyberattacks, it’s worthwhile to consider how many security protocols operate on the Internet keeping the exchange of information between machines secure.
Attendees at the National Motor Freight Traffic Association’s (NMFTA) upcoming Digital Solutions Conference on Cybersecurity should be prepared to hear an array of strange and disturbing noises. The noise that will be apparent during a live truck hacking demonstration is referred to as a chuff, to be specific.
In a recent FreightWavesNOW interview, our director of enterprise security Antwan Banks urged trucking companies to prioritize both patching and training.
During NMFTA’s recent webinar, Perygee CEO Mollie Breen shared with participants why little data is so critical, and how we can ensure we have enough of it.
During NMFTA’s recent webinar, Eitan Richman – an Israeli operations specialist who is familiar not only with the world of independent and corporate hackers, but also with the cyber warfare conducted by nation-states – offered a thorough assessment of the current cyber warfare landscape.
During NMFTA’s recent webinar, industry professional Chloe Callahan shared four protocols that can help the industry learn from industrial control systems (ICS).
During a recent interview with FreightWaves, the National Motor Freight Traffic Association’s (NMFTA) Executive Director Debbie Sparks and Senior Cybersecurity Research Engineer Ben Gardiner had a chance to speak directly to the critical impact the organization is making on today’s LTL trucking industry.
Given the importance of cybersecurity to the trucking industry, any resource that helps with the effort is welcome. And many people in our industry don’t realize we already have access to tons of resources from the federal government.
Many shippers and 3PLs who see the value of our NMFC classification system face a challenge we recognize well: Dealing with a very large number of products. NMFTA can help!
For as much work as NMFTA does to help LTL trucking companies achieve cybersecurity, imagine: What if a fleet achieves all that, only to fall under a cyberattack anyway because it contracts with a telematics vendor that has left itself unprotected?
Read as NMFTA’s cybersecurity team shares why its position on the risks of ELDs and other telematics devices has not changed since a publication that was written in 2015 and why.
When developing a strategy to achieve cybersecurity for trucks, Ryan Gerdes, Ph.D., wants the industry to have a critical understanding of one fact: Sensor security is essential to the entire effort.
