In their continued effort to avert cargo theft in the United States, the House Transportation & Infrastructure’s Subcommittee on Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials recently hosted industry professionals to address this rapidly rising issue.

Grace Truslow of the Eno Center for Transportation recapped the May 2, 2025 meeting, “Combatting Cargo Theft: Stakeholder Perspectives”(https://lnkd.in/gDS2TkST).

Leaders at the conference discussed the exponential rise of cargo theft in recent years, particularly in strategic theft. Well organized criminal cells, comprised of perpetrators who have infiltrated all levels of the supply chain, employ the most sophisticated cyber tools to divert cargo.

Although the bulk of the crimes occur in larger metropolitan areas, even more sparsely populated geographic areas now see a rise in strategic theft. This shift requires corporations to rethink their security plans.
