Cybercrimes cost Australian businesses $33 billion in the 2020-2021 Australian financial year. There has been an increase in the average severity and impact of reported cyber security incidents, with nearly half being categorised as substantial.
The Covid-19 pandemic has compelled Australian businesses to increase their reliance on the internet to work remotely. Digitisation has provided many benefits to Australian businesses including operational efficiencies, connectivity and expanded revenue streams. On the contrary, it has also exposed Australian businesses to cyber-attacks. This has been prevalent across all industries, including businesses operating in proximity to the commercial freight and logistics sector.
Cyber security attacks are harmful and costly to businesses and can result in loss of money and personal information. While the Australian government has put in place strategies to strengthen cyber resilience among Australian businesses, when digitising transport and logistics, it is critical that businesses are selective with which transport management software they choose to onboard.
