Energy and utility companies, coupled with their upstream and downstream counterparts, are becoming a more common target for cybercrimes at the hacktivist and nation-state levels.

Today’s energy industry has experienced rapid digitalization and integration of new technologies empowered by the Internet of Things (IoT), providing attackers with a much broader and less isolated attack surface to exploit.  Additionally, the unique interdependence between physical technologies and cyber infrastructure makes companies vulnerable to multiple types of exploitation, including billing and consumption fraud, loss of control or integrity of Operational Technology (OT) systems, and even physical destruction.

Confidence in the cybersecurity readiness of critical industries is achieved by understanding the risks and taking the appropriate set of measures to be thoroughly prepared. At MAKINSIGHTS, we recognize these challenges and have the insight and expertise to support and operationalize your strategies.
