Cybersecurity in logistics: risks of hacking autonomous systems and data protection

Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of cybersecurity issues in the modern logistics industry, which is characterized by the active implementation of digital technologies, including autonomous systems and the Internet of Things (IoT). The risks associated with the vulnerability of autonomous vehicles, as well as threats of leakage of confidential data, including personal data of customers and trade secrets, are considered. Various attack vectors are analyzed and comprehensive security measures are proposed that cover all aspects of logistics operations. The need for strict cybersecurity policies and procedures, regular audits, encryption, multi-factor authentication and network activity monitoring is emphasized.
