However, the increasing reliance on interconnected systems raises significant cybersecurity challenges, particularly regarding secure data exchange and protection of sensitive information. This paper explores the critical role of cryptographic models and secure communication protocols in safeguarding real-time data sharing among AI-driven logistics networks. We analyze key security challenges faced by IoT-enabled freight systems and propose robust encryption and key distribution strategies to ensure confidentiality, integrity, and resilience. Our findings highlight the importance of secure information management in advancing sustainable, cyber-resilient supply chains that support environmental goals while maintaining operational efficiency. 2025 2025 119 136 10.54216/JCIM.160209 https://www.americaspg.com/articleinfo/2/show/3810
