When Logistics Stops, Everything Stops
In transport, warehousing and distribution, every hour of downtime carries a real cost -
to customers, contracts and reputation.
Syscomm has recovered over 200+ organisations from ransomware attacks. None of them have been hit again. This isn’t theory. It’s experience earned in the middle of real operational crises.
The reality for operational businesses
Cyber security in logistics is an operational risk – one that touches every system, vehicle and warehouse your business depends on.
Transport and supply chain businesses are attractive targets because:
• They rely on constant uptime
• They operate on tight margins and contractual SLAs
• They depend on connected systems across warehouses, vehicles and third parties
• They often run legacy systems alongside modern IoT and automation
Attackers understand that if they disrupt warehouse management systems, fleet platforms or scanning devices, the pressure to pay is immediate.
Security in Transport environments must account for more than just servers and laptops. It must include scanners, Wi-Fi infrastructure, IoT devices, warehouse automation and third-party integrations.
