Cyberx For Energy
Some of the world’s largest and most complex energy providers depend on us to safeguard their control centers and substations — including two of the top four U.S. energy utilities.
We can safeguard yours.
CyberX protects 2 of the top 5 US energy utilities, plus national electric & gas utilities across Europe and APAC.
“As India’s largest private power producer and largest solar power producer, Adani successfully tested CyberX’s centralized, enterprise-wide view of OT risk with real-time protection for our generation, transmission, and distribution sites across the country.”
Dharmesh Rathod, GM & CISO, Adani Power
“CyberX provides the level of visibility we require to actively identify potential threats to our systems. It has proven to be an extremely valuable platform for both our SCADA and security teams and is a key part of how we manage our cyber and operational risk.”
CISO, Major Energy Utility, Pacific Rim

INTELLIGENT CYBERSECURITY
A cyberattack in the energy sector is possibly the most devastating scenario of all industrial cyber threats. Not only does the potential exist for safety failures impacting human lives, but even partial shutdowns of the grid could seriously impact all other sectors and the entire economy.
As digitalization increases connectivity between IT and OT networks, the risk of targeted OT attacks and destructive malware has also increased.
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), Smart Grid, and other modernization initiatives further increase risk by creating a larger
attack surface from massive numbers of new IIoT devices.
TIMELINE OF RECENT EVENTS
DECEMBER 2014
The FBI/DHS announced it had uncovered a sophisticated malware campaign targeting industrial control systems using a variant of the BlackEnergy malware. The campaign went back to at least 2011 and was generally attributed to a Russian hacker team known as Sandworm.
2015 – 2016
Cybersecurity analysts widely believe that Sandworm carried out destructive attacks on Ukrainian electric utilities that cut off power to hundreds of thousands of people.
MARCH 2018
The FBI/DHS confirmed that Russian government threat actors had successfully compromised US energy sector networks in a campaign going back to at least March 2016. The campaign leveraged compromised credentials to gain remote access to OT networks, after which they moved laterally and conducted reconnaissance. The FBI alert attributed the activity to a Russian group known as Dragonfly or Energetic Bear.
REAL TECHNOLOGY
THAT WORKS TODAY
CYBERX HAS YOUR BACK WITH BATTLE‑TESTED CYBERSECURITY
Industrial malware has now evolved to become autonomous, extensible, and capable of executing device commands specific to a particular ICS environment.
Against organized cybercriminals and nation-state threats, you need battle-tested cybersecurity. CyberX has your back by continuously reducing critical infrastructure risk with zero impact to operations. As the most mature and complete industrial cybersecurity platform, we work with organizations worldwide to enable faster detection and response to ICS/SCADA risk including:
