Solutions for Utilities, Energy and Power

Internet Security Systems (ISS) helps energy, power and utility organizations cost-effectively improve information security to meet security best practices and maintain regulatory compliance.

Critical Protection for Critical Systems

Millions of customers depend on your organization for vital energy and utility services. Network outages or security incidents, whether accidental or caused by malicious activity, can have widespread consequences in terms of costs and lives affected. As a result, your network could present an inviting target to attackers.

SCADA and Process Control Systems

Securing SCADA and other process control systems can help your organization maintain network availability and reduce the risk of a security incident. Even though many SCADA systems are not able to utilize common IT security controls, ISS is able to detect and act upon security threats that traditional SCADA systems may not recognize.

ISS actively researches software vulnerabilities in SCADA systems, collaborating with government agencies, industry consortiums and software developers to improve system security.

Business Systems

Business systems such as customer databases, billing and energy trading may also be vulnerable to attack. Unsecured links between these and control systems could put your entire network at risk. ISS will help design your networks, systems and the links between them to improve your overall security.

Regulatory Compliance

Achieving compliance with government and industry regulations, such as those from the North American Electric Reliability Council (NERC), Federal Entergy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and other government organizations can also affect information security decisions.

ISS will conduct a thorough gap analysis of your current security state and compare it to requirements for security best practices. Then, ISS works with you to design and implement solutions that close those gaps and ensure ongoing regulatory compliance and reporting.

Cost-effective Security

Faced with protecting a complex and widespread infrastructure, many utility organizations delay information security investments due to cost concerns. ISS uses a proven methodology to analyze and prioritize risks, allowing you to remediate issues cost-effectively and in order of importance.
