Keeping the lights on and the risks off.

The energy sector is a cornerstone of global infrastructure, powering homes, businesses, and industries. Insiders, with their privileged access to critical and confidential information, can cause catastrophic financial loss, operational disruptions, and severe regulatory repercussions if they act maliciously or negligently. The sector’s vital role in sustaining daily life and economic activity, coupled with the high stakes of energy production and distribution, amplifies the risk of data breaches, making vigilance against insider risks essential. On this page, the insider risks related to the energy sector are explored. Understanding the full picture of our clients’ challenges guides us in doing what we do best: mitigating insider risk.

OUR
APPROACH.

To secure your organisation, you must first identify who your threat actors are, what critical systems and data underpin your business, and how to apply security controls to best protect these assets en route to developing a comprehensive security strategy. Doing so may leave you asking:

  • How do we view the business holistically against security threats and risk?
  • How can we gain visibility into our inventory of assets and controls?
  • What are our most valuable data or systems and how do they map to the business?
