Email security in trucking is no longer optional — it’s essential.
The logistics industry is undergoing rapid digitalization. Cloud platforms, ELDs, TMS systems, and mobile dispatch tools are now the backbone of operations. But with this progress comes risk: email remains one of the weakest links in the cybersecurity chain.
Small and mid-sized fleets are increasingly targeted by phishing, domain spoofing, and account takeovers. Shared inboxes, outdated access policies, and misconfigured Google Workspace setups make dispatch communication highly vulnerable, putting brokers, customers, and operations at risk.
The future of dispatch security depends on visibility, automation, and accountability. Tools like SPF, DKIM, DMARC, 2FA, BIMI, and audit logs must work in harmony, and users must be trained to recognize threats before they escalate.
While technology provides the foundation, a secure email environment is ultimately a business advantage. It builds trust, protects margins, and keeps freight moving.
Explore the full dispatch security guide to learn how fleets are reducing email risk and gaining a competitive edge through smarter cybersecurity.
