Inside the Truck Cyber Threat – PlaxidityX Ep 21

With cyber attacks on trucks becoming more common and costly, fleet operators and OEMs must rethink how they protect their vehicle security and data privacy. Trucks are no longer isolated units, they're part of a larger, interconnected automotive ecosystem vulnerable to disruption.

In this episode, we unpack the threats, explore real-world hacking scenarios, and dive into actionable cybersecurity strategies for truck manufacturers. The financial and operational stakes are sky-high, especially when trucks are transporting valuable or perishable cargo. We break down the dangers of a hacked ELD, the threats to critical systems like braking, and the growing risks of data theft.

Join us to discover how truck manufacturers can implement a security-by-design approach, from early TARA assessments to real-time VSOC monitoring. It's time to stop treating automotive cybersecurity as an afterthought in the transportation industry.
