Proactively secure energy sector grid operations
Secure the automated generation, transmission and distribution of your SCADA networks from cyber threats to enhance grid performance and resiliency.
Protect vital grid assets from complex cyber threats
Cyber threat detection
Identify unauthorized network behavior or changes to RTUs, PLCs and IEDs to enforce cybersecurity policy and ensure reliable service.
Configuration control
Monitor device logic and operations status with a complete audit trail to facilitate recovery efforts for outages or service degradation.
Asset tracking
Get instant visibility and automatic tracking of local and remote assets for improved situational awareness, cyber security and recovery with reduced monitoring costs.
Reduce cyber risk for grid modernization
Actively discover, classify and track assets in local and remote sites from a single centralized deployment to get full visibility into all operational assets like IEDs, RTUs and PLCs, breakers, meters and drivers using active device querying, signature-based threat detection, and policy and anomaly detection engines.
Raise cyber readiness
Get instant alerts on unauthorized access to critical devices at any site. Tenable OT Security detects and immediately alerts you to any unauthorized change in controller logic, whether performed via the network or by physical access to the device. When an event triggers a system alert, it is accompanied by meaningful detailed information and context as to what caused the alert. This contextual information allows you to quickly detect cyber attacks and malfunctions that could impact service continuity.
NERC CIP compliance
Continuous visibility, security, control simplifies NERC compliance. Tenable OT Security helps you demonstrate full compliance with NERC CIP standards. Our proven solution provides real-time visibility, asset management and activity monitoring for OT networks. This enables utilities to comply with NERC CIP standards related to asset inventory management, security management (malicious code prevention, security event monitoring), configuration and change management, vulnerability assessment and other key areas.
Early warning to threats
Early detection of IED and PLC configuration changes allow for effective attack mitigation. Rigorous configuration control ensures you will be notified of any change to PLCs, IEDs and other devices. Tenable OT Security tracks all changes to any device at the main plant or a remote site, providing you with early detection of cyber attacks and malfunctions. Early warning enables you to take the necessary mitigation steps to avoid outages or service degradation.
Identify suspicious behavior
Proactively discover bad actors trying to penetrate your environment and remove the threat. Tenable OT Security helps you identify and mitigate advanced cyber attacks before they do damage. Tenable OT Security monitors changes and deviations from normal network behavior, allowing you to detect early probing and reconnaissance activities by bad actors preparing to launch an attack. Using powerful device classification capabilities and by understanding the context of ICS commands, Tenable OT Security detects even the most clandestine APT reconnaissance activities. This lets you begin threat hunting before the actual attack commences.
Mitigation and recovery
Quickly recover from security events or human errors. Tenable OT Security safeguards your critical infrastructure from cyber threats as well as human errors by ensures that your plants, grid assets and remote sites are protected from unauthorized intervention. All changes to industrial controllers and other devices are tracked and monitored. By providing early warning of attempted cyber attacks and human errors that could disrupt operational processes, Tenable OT Security reduces the risk of costly outages and ensures service continuity.
Utilities and power infrastructure: prime targets for cyber attackers
In 2022, one in ten (10.7%) cyberattacks worldwide targeted energy organizations making it the fourth most attacked industry globally and the most attacked in North America.
