Energy and utilities
Utilities run critical infrastructure on a mix of modern IT and decades-old control systems. We help you secure both and stay audit-ready.
Fortify Experts helps electric, gas and water utilities assess and secure IT and OT environments, prepare for NERC CIP audits, align control systems to IEC 62443, and lock down remote access through Fortified360.
Requirements we help you meet
| Requirement | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| NERC CIP | Mandatory reliability standards for bulk electric system cyber assets, from asset categorization to supply chain risk |
| IEC 62443 | The international standard for industrial automation and control system security |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | An enterprise-wide maturity baseline that covers IT and OT together |

Questions we hear
Do you work with small utilities and co-ops?
Yes. Smaller utilities often have the same obligations with far fewer people. A NIST CSF 2.0 baseline and a part-time vCISO are a common starting point.
Can you help with water utility cybersecurity?
Yes. We assess water and wastewater systems using the same OT-safe methods, with a focus on remote access and segmentation.
