Zero Trust for

Infrastructure
& Energy

Energy and infrastructure businesses are critical to the functioning of our society and economy, and as such, their systems and networks must be protected against cyber threats. Zero Trust security can help energy and infrastructure businesses address these security challenges and improve their overall security posture. Here are some reasons why energy and infrastructure businesses should consider using Zero Trust security: 

  1. Protect critical systems: Energy and infrastructure businesses operate critical systems, such as power grids, transportation systems, and water treatment facilities, that must be protected against cyber threats. Zero Trust security helps protect these systems by verifying the identity of users and controlling access to sensitive data. 

  2. Secure remote access: With the rise of remote work, energy and infrastructure businesses need to ensure that their employees have secure access to the data and resources they need to do their jobs. Zero Trust security can provide secure remote access for employees, ensuring that sensitive information is not compromised. 

  3. Prevent cyber attacks: Energy and infrastructure businesses are prime targets for cyber attacks, including attacks that aim to disrupt critical systems. Zero Trust security helps prevent these attacks by verifying the identity of users and controlling access to sensitive data. 

  4. Comply with regulations: Energy and infrastructure businesses are often required to comply with regulations such as the North American Electric Reliability Corporation's Critical Infrastructure Protection (NERC CIP) standards. Zero Trust security can help energy and infrastructure businesses meet these requirements and ensure that sensitive information is protected. 

  5. Enhance overall security posture: By implementing a Zero Trust security model, energy and infrastructure businesses can strengthen their overall security posture and protect against cyber threats.
