OT / IT Convergence
SCADA and ICS systems no longer air-gapped, but security operating models still are.
Energy & Utilities
Protect critical infrastructure, modernise OT/IT estates, and meet NERC CIP and NIS2 mandates while operating 24/7.
Industry Overview
Energy is critical infrastructure under continuous threat.
Utilities, generators, and oil & gas operators run estates where downtime is measured in public impact — and where NERC CIP, NIS2, and IEC 62443 mandates raise the regulatory floor every year. The OT / IT boundary is where most modernisation programmes succeed or fail.
Key Challenges
The pressure points this sector lives with.
NERC CIP / NIS2 Compliance
Continuous evidence requirements with material penalties for non-compliance.
Critical Infrastructure Threats
Nation-state attackers targeting energy operators specifically. Ransomware capable of public impact.
Legacy ICS / SCADA Estates
Equipment running unsupported firmware because the OEM "doesn't recommend" patching.
Distributed Field Operations
Remote sites, substations, and rigs requiring connectivity, monitoring, and identity controls.
Vendor Remote Access
OEMs and service providers needing privileged access without the credential sprawl risk.
Business Outcomes

Utility Achieved NERC CIP Compliance Across 6 Sites
Challenge
Inherited control posture with documentation gaps, untested incident response, and inconsistent evidence collection across 6 generation sites.
Solution
Gap analysis, policy development, technical controls implementation, automated evidence collection, and quarterly tabletop exercises.
Outcome
Zero findings in regulatory audit. Continuous-evidence model now extended to NIS2 readiness. Audit cycle time cut by 60%.
