# Nebraska Trucking Email Security

**76.7%** of active carrier domains in Nebraska have no enforced DMARC. That leaves freight operators open to email impersonation, payment-redirect fraud, and cargo theft via phishing.

Edition: 2026-Q2 State rank: #32 Carriers: 4,402 Domains: 3,139

## Risk bands — Nebraska carriers

Carrier counts by risk band (composite email-security pain score). Critical = score 70+; Minimal = score <15.

| Risk band | Score range | Carriers | Domains |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Critical | score 70+ | 304 | 273 |
| High | score 50–69 | 1,116 | 841 |
| Medium | score 30–49 | 1,938 | 1,271 |
| Low | score 15–29 | 838 | 551 |
| Minimal | score

## Nebraska vs. national average

No enforced DMARC 76.7% vs 80.1% national

p=reject adoption 10.9% vs 7.5% national

MTA-STS 3.7% vs 3.3% national

DNSSEC 5.2% vs 6.1% national

## What the Nebraska numbers actually mean

**DMARC posture.** Nebraska's share of carrier domains with no enforced DMARC sits at **76.7%**, better than the national average by 3.4 points. Nebraska carriers adopt the enforced p=reject DMARC policy at a meaningfully higher rate than the national pool. At the protective end of the distribution, 10.9% of Nebraska domains are at p=reject, the only DMARC policy that actually instructs receivers to drop spoofed mail.

**Microsoft 365 surface.** Microsoft 365 mailflow adoption tracks the national distribution closely, so the 921 M365 carriers in Nebraska with DMARC disabled represent the same "paid-for-but-switched-off" pattern that drives the national headline. That share is **20.9%** of all Nebraska carriers — a one-flag-flip remediation set that any regional MSP or in-house IT lead can clear in a single quarter.

**Transport encryption.** MTA-STS adoption sits at 3.7%, materially below the threshold a freight payment-redirect attacker would have to clear to be inconvenienced by transport-layer policy. DNSSEC adoption in Nebraska runs at **5.2%** (vs 6.1% national), which matters for downstream DKIM and MTA-STS validation but is still a minority signal.

**Risk-band shape.** Nebraska's critical-band share is 6.9% versus 8.4% nationally, with the pressure shifting into the high band (25.4% of state carriers) where one or two control gaps still leave room for impersonation. The composite pain score blends SPF posture, DMARC enforcement, MTA-STS presence, and DNSSEC, so a carrier clusters in the critical band only when several controls fail together. Remediation that flips DMARC to enforcement plus turns on MTA-STS typically moves a carrier two bands down in one quarter.

**What this means for buyers and shippers.** If you are dispatching freight, settling broker payments, or receiving rate confirmations from Nebraska-based carriers, the operational exposure is the 76.7%of domains that cannot stop a stranger from sending email in the carrier's name. Payment-redirect and load-redirect fraud rides on exactly that gap. Verifying a counterparty's DMARC posture before a first wire (a 30-second DNS lookup) is the cheapest control in the freight stack.
