Security Philosophy
“PACCAR's security philosophy is centered on maintaining customer trust and stakeholder confidence, with the security organization structured into three distinct divisions: Global Security Operations, Global Information Security, and Vehicle Security. There is no publicly available verbatim mission statement specifically for the Application Security team, nor are there explicit public descriptions of their approach to developer enablement versus gatekeeping or specific risk philosophies like 'threat modeling' or 'risk-based approach.'”
Security Team
- The PACCAR security team is divided into Global Security Operations, Global Information Security, and Vehicle Security.
- Key leadership includes Chuck Markarian (Chief Information Security Officer) and Tim McCleerey (Information Security Manager).
- As of January 2026, there is at least one active job posting for an Application Security Internship.
Key Initiatives
There is no publicly available evidence of a Security Champions program or specific 'Shift Left' practices (such as pre-commit or IDE scanning) at PACCAR. Vulnerability management processes, including specific SLAs or remediation workflows for application-level findings, are also not publicly documented.
