Energy & Gas

As one of the most vital sectors in our society, the energy and gas industry frequently suffers targeted security attacks: from intricate and calculated infrastructure terrorism to cyber hacking to meter tampering. The disruption of machinery operations could prove fatal and costly, not only by interrupting energy or gas flows but also by causing significant trouble in other sectors. 

For energy and gas companies, keeping a safe environment is key but also a great challenge. 

With imminent grid modernization adding complexity to the system, it can be cumbersome to keep security tight, even more so when working with different third-party suppliers across the world. Having information and communication devices and technologies embedded throughout the entire system on top of running operations in remote onshore and offshore locations, energy and gas companies need highly secure, hacking-resilient products and technologies. Hardening their devices by using our sophisticated embedded product development and thorough security optimization, we make sure they can guarantee safe and uninterrupted services to the end consumer.

Power companies purchase information, hardware, software, services, and more from third parties across the globe. And threat actors can introduce compromised components into a system or network unintentionally or by design, at any point in the system's life cycle.
