Logistics and supply-chain operators manage a vastly distributed network of warehouses, transport vehicles, port interfaces, and third-party carrier integrations that collectively represent an enormous and often poorly secured attack surface — demonstrated by ransomware attacks on Maersk, CMA CGM, and multiple freight forwarders that caused hundreds of millions of dollars in disruption. Zero Trust network access controls allow logistics operators to grant granular, time-limited access to shipment management systems for carriers, customs agents, and ground handlers without exposing the full corporate network, while WMS and TMS isolation limits blast radius in the event of a compromise.
