Verisk Analytics, a leading source of information about risk, announced that Schneider National is employing CargoNet(R) to help support its supply chain security program. CargoNet will help facilitate secure and controlled information sharing between Schneider and law enforcement and provide advanced analytics to track cargo theft trends in real time. CargoNet is a member of the Verisk Analytics family of companies.

"The transportation industry must become better at making information available to law enforcement to expedite the identification of lost goods," said Walt Fountain, director of enterprise security for Schneider National. "A national database of cargo thefts -- one that strikes a balance between information sharing and data privacy ' has significant value for everyone in the industry. We now need others in the industry to join in and share their data to make the system as robust and effective as possible in deterring cargo thefts."

"Schneider's adoption of CargoNet is a major step forward for CargoNet given Schneider's leadership in the transportation industry and, in particular, Schneider's recognition as a company with the highest standards of security," added David Shillingford, president of CargoNet.
