Our certified experts have the tools necessary to protect your systems across different industries.

Cyberattacks paralyze vital utilities, jeopardizing communities' water, energy resources, & safety. 

The modern world is reliant on energy, from our economies and electricity to our water supplies and transportation services. Municipalities, utility grids, and security systems require constant power from corporations producing coal, oil, and gas; nuclear energy; and renewable solar, wind, hydropower, or geothermal electricities.

This pivotal dependency makes the energy industry a prime target for ransomware, kinetic attacks, and other cybercrimes.

Safeguarding communities from the devastating impacts of blackouts & compromised utility systems 

Cyber adversaries' complex strikes could render towns, cities, and states helpless to widespread blackouts and compromised vital resources and services, endangering citizens’ overall well-being. 

  • Within the last 90 days, 77% of the energy industry has at least one leaked credential.
  • Earlier this year, a U.S. government funding bill outlined a $2.6 billion budget for the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)—$568 million more than last year’s levels—to fund the Biden Administration’s 100-Day Action Plan and bolster cybersecurity in the U.S. electricity subsector.

To protect constituencies from the paralyzing effects of compromised water systems, blackouts, and more, it is vital utility corporations invest in multifaceted, cyber-resilient technologies that proactively monitor infrastructure 24/7/365 and curb threats before they manifest as devastating attacks.
