As the logistics industry becomes increasingly digitized, the threat of cybercrime looms larger than ever. Recognizing this pressing concern, Transport Logistic 2025, scheduled from June 2 to 5 in Munich, will spotlight cybersecurity across all modes of transport and sectors, integrating it prominently into its conference agenda.
Rising Cyber Threats in Logistics
The spectrum of cyber threats is vast, ranging from phishing emails that compromise sensitive information to ransomware attacks that can paralyze entire supply chains. The European NIS2 Directive, enacted in October 2024, underscores the urgency of bolstering security in network and information systems, aiming to enhance the resilience of critical infrastructures.
Industry-Wide Vigilance
Cybersecurity is a universal concern, impacting companies of all sizes within the logistics sector. Transport Logistic 2025 will feature solutions in Hall B1, where firms specializing in IT, telematics, e-business, and telecommunications will showcase their latest innovations. Notable exhibitors include Addsecure (B1.409), Körber (B1.326), and Dako (B1.201/302).
Expert Insights and Discussions
The conference will host a series of panels and presentations addressing cybersecurity challenges:
- “Cybersecurity in Transport and Logistics” Panel: Organized by the German Logistics Association (BVL), this session will unveil a new white paper and feature discussions with global companies like Noerpel.
- “Digitalization in the Logistics Industry”: Presented by the digital association Bitkom, focusing on the intersection of digital transformation and security.
- “Enhancing Supply Chain Resilience through Digital Technologies”: Led by the Zaragoza Logistics Center, this panel will explore how digital tools can fortify supply chains against cyber threats.
Additionally, the Campus Plaza will dedicate an entire day to interconnected presentations on cybersecurity, emphasizing its critical role in modern logistics.
A Call to Action for Leadership
Marius Roy, Project Manager Trends & Markets at BVL, emphasizes the imperative for executive involvement:
“Everyone involved in the supply chain is experiencing the increasing threat of cybercrime. The potentially life-threatening consequences of cyber attacks go beyond the scope of IT responsibility. Responsibility for cybersecurity must therefore lie at management level. Many companies need to take action here.”
Conclusion
As cyber threats become more sophisticated, the logistics industry must proactively enhance its defenses. Transport Logistic 2025 serves as a pivotal platform for stakeholders to collaborate, share knowledge, and implement strategies to safeguard the future of global supply chains.
