Hackers are increasingly infiltrating the trucking and logistics sectors, collaborating with organized crime to execute sophisticated schemes aimed at stealing cargo shipments, according to research by cybersecurity firm Proofpoint. This growing threat, active since June 2025, exploits vulnerabilities in trucking carriers and freight brokers, often utilizing remote monitoring and management (RMM) software to gain unauthorized access. Attackers employ tactics such as spear-phishing emails, compromised accounts, and fraudulent freight listings to lure victims into installing malicious software, which enables deep infiltration into corporate networks. The stolen goods, primarily food and beverage products, are likely sold online or shipped overseas. The use of RMM tools is particularly concerning as it allows attackers to remain undetected while executing their schemes, thus posing a significant risk to the logistics industry. This development underscores the urgent need for enhanced cybersecurity measures in the transport sector to safeguard against financial losses and operational disruptions, highlighting the intersection of cybercrime and traditional organized crime tactics in undermining critical supply chains.
