The NMFTA 2026 Transportation Industry Cybersecurity Trends Report finds that in 2025 attackers increased specialization and automation—leveraging social engineering, AI-enabled phishing and deepfakes, weaponized legitimate admin tools, and supply-chain compromises—to drive ransomware/extortion, data theft, and cyber-enabled cargo theft; the report emphasizes systemic risk across fleets and logistics providers, rapid attack timelines (average breakout time ~18 minutes), and calls for integrated cyber/physical/operational security, continuous monitoring, intelligence sharing, and regulatory preparedness in 2026.
