Spot cargo theftbefore the truckmoves.
Today's cargo theft often starts with a spoofed email, a compromised account, or a fake website. IT Spot helps carriers, brokers, and logistics providers see those warning signs earlier and act before a load is lost.

01By the numbers
Fewer thefts.
Much bigger losses.
Criminal groups are getting more selective, going after high-value loads through deception rather than force. The entry point is increasingly an email account, not a padlock.

“Business email compromise remained the primary access point for many of the quarter's most sophisticated cargo theft schemes.”
02The problem
Cargo theft has changed. The freight was always the target.
Then
Years ago, cargo theft often involved physical surveillance, stolen trailers, or warehouse break-ins.
- Physical surveillance
- Stolen trailers
- Warehouse break-ins
Now
Today, many thefts begin with:
- Spoofed emails
- Business impersonation
- Compromised accounts
- Freight fraud
- Fake websites
- Load board fraud
- Unauthorized access to business systems

03How it happens
How cyber-enabled cargo theft happens
- 01
Gain Access
A phishing email, compromised password, or fraudulent website gives attackers access to company communications.
We watch for: Suspicious logins & credential compromise
- 02
Build Trust
Attackers monitor conversations, learn business relationships, and impersonate trusted partners.
We watch for: Look-alike domains & email impersonation
- 03
Access Freight Information
Shipment details, routes, schedules, and operational processes become visible.
We watch for: Unusual mailbox access & hidden forwarding rules
- 04
Redirect Freight
Criminals manipulate communications and reroute cargo to unauthorized locations.
We watch for: Delivery changes without call-back verification
- 05
Cargo Loss
The physical theft is often the final step in a much larger process.
By now, the warning signs have already been missed
The same attack, caught early.
Our goal is to help identify those warning signs before they become a business disruption.

04Our approach
Most attacks leave warning signs. We help you see them.
Our goal is to help identify those warning signs before they become a business disruption: across your accounts, devices, domains, and the alerts your tools already produce.

05Why it works
What makes transportation companies vulnerable?
Freight runs on speed, email, and trust. Attackers know it, and they build every scheme around those same habits.
Where decisions happen
Email Dependency
Critical shipment decisions are often made through email.
What gets exploited
Trust-Based Relationships
Criminals exploit existing trust between carriers, brokers, customers, and dispatchers.
What goes unseen
Limited Visibility
Many organizations do not see warning signs until after the incident occurs.
What attackers count on
Lack of Verification
Urgency often replaces verification. That is exactly what attackers are counting on.
