On August 14, 1 p.m. ET, the National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) is holding a cybersecurity webinar discussing Chinese-made technologies in trucking. The event will discuss foreign-made devices and components in trucks and how they could pose a threat to fleet safety, data, and long-term viability.
Some components that pose potential risks include EV batteries, routers, surveillance cameras, and IoT devices. To explore how to manage these component risks, Artie Crawford, CISSP, CISM, director of Cybersecurity, and Ben Wilkens, CISSP, CCSP, CISM, cybersecurity principal engineer, both with NMFTA, will discuss real-world case studies and provide analysis. They’ll also discuss how physical and digital espionage campaigns are targeting the transportation sector.
More specifically, the webinar will focus on:
Which technologies pose the greatest risks and why
How federal policies are evolving to address concerns
How compromised components can leak data on vehicle locations, driver habits, and cargo routes
Actionable steps fleets can take to protect operations
The webinar is free to attend, and you can register here.
