Trucking runs on trust. Trust that shipments will arrive, routes will stay secure, and the systems behind every operation will keep moving.

Today, that trust is increasingly being targeted by cyber threats. Data breaches and system disruptions can impact supply chains, compromise sensitive business information, delay shipments, and create significant financial losses.

That’s why the Georgia Trucking Association is partnering with Serket-Tech Security to host The Road Ahead: Cybersecurity for the Modern Fleet, a virtual webinar designed for carriers, brokers, and logistics leaders who want to better understand today’s cyber risks and, more importantly, what they can do about them.

Join Dante Jackson, Robert Igarashi, and Emily Crane for a timely conversation on protecting your business and preparing for the road ahead.
