NIST quantum-resistant encryption deadlineTHE PROBLEM
What’s Holding
Energy Industry Back?
IT and OT Convergence
The traditional air gap between enterprise IT and Operational Technology (OT) is largely gone, yet cryptographic controls for each environment were never designed to work together.
Unverified Control System
Control system firmware frequently arrives from vendors without cryptographic signatures, allowing tampered software to reach operational technology undetected.
Supply Chain Provenance
Substations, smart meters, and remote equipment carry certificates that are rarely inventoried or governed centrally, creating compliance gaps at massive scale.
Mandatory Type Approval
State-sponsored actors establish persistent access and wait, exploiting unmanaged credentials and weak cryptographic controls for years before detection.
Quantum Risk
NERC CIP mandates documented cryptographic controls across bulk electric assets. Manual processes cannot meet continuous monitoring requirements at grid scale.
METHODOLOGY
Our Approach
Energy cryptographic programs must span IT and OT environments, respect operational constraints, and defend against persistent threats. We design every engagement around those realities:
01
Grid Aware First
Every certificate and key spans IT networks, SCADA systems, and remote field assets. We map your full cryptographic footprint before recommending any changes.
02
Operationally Constrained
Energy systems run under strict availability requirements. We design cryptographic automation that works within maintenance windows, not around them.
03
Protected for Decades
Grid infrastructure installed today operates for decades. We build post quantum readiness into every engagement so protections remain sound for the asset's full lifetime.
