The ST-ISAC: Intelligent Defense for a Critical Sector

The Cost of Going it Alone

For most organizations, especially small-to-mid-size fleets, building a comparable capability in-house would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars per year — and still lack the 20+ years of sector-specific threat data, intelligence sources, and trusted relationships the ST-ISAC provides. Even for the most well-funded companies, duplicating our access, partnerships, and credibility across federal agencies, ISACs, and law enforcement is not possible. Meanwhile, the cost of a single successful cyberattack or cargo theft event can devastate operations. In 2024 alone, cargo theft surged 27%, reaching a record 3,625 incidents across North America, with total losses estimated at $454.9 million. At the same time, cyberattacks on the transportation sector have intensified, with the industry becoming an increasingly attractive target for cybercriminals.
