Highway pitches shared standards as freight fraud shifts

Cargo thieves have learned to work the space between a broker and a carrier. They impersonate carriers, intercept load data and redirect shipments.

Highway sells carrier identity and vetting tools to freight brokers, and Caney has described it as the Plaid for freight . He said Highway answers to the 1,500 brokers that pay it to manage risk, and that its customer base and integrations give it more data than anyone on who is moving North American truckload freight and how likely each load is to be stolen.
