ClearLane Cyber gives mid-sized logistics companies the same caliber of security leadership the largest carriers have, without the cost of a full-time executive.
James spent six years as Chief Information Security Officer of Old Dominion Freight Line, one of the nation's leading less-than-truckload carriers, where he led cybersecurity, privacy and compliance and reported to the Board.
Before that, he held senior technology leadership roles at Advance Auto Parts, the Federal Reserve System and Genworth Financial, giving him a view of security in retail, banking regulation and financial services as well as freight.
He founded ClearLane Cyber after seeing how many carriers, brokers and 3PLs face the same threats as the largest companies in the industry, with no security executive to lead the response. His approach is simple: explain risk in plain business terms, fix what matters most first, and keep freight moving.

ClearLane Cyber is deliberately small and senior. Every engagement is led by an experienced security executive, and everything we do runs on documented methods, so the quality you get stays the same as we grow.
No hand-offs to junior staff. The executive you meet is the one who leads your work.
A consistent assessment approach, standard deliverables and written playbooks. What we build for you stays with your company.
A written confidentiality and data-handling policy governs every engagement, with each client's information kept separate.
Experienced security professionals with a background in freight or logistics: we'd like to hear from you.
Cyber risk explained in plain business terms, with every recommendation ranked by its impact on your business.
Security that fits how freight runs, measured by how quickly your trucks and systems get back to work.
Your information is never shared, and we hold ourselves to the standards we recommend to you.
No product resale and no vendor referral fees. We recommend what's right for you, nothing else.
Every driver knows the feeling of an open road with nothing in the way. That's what good security should feel like for a freight business: the risks are known, the plan is clear, and the business keeps moving. Our shield holds a lane for exactly that reason.
