Advanced Cybersecurity Protection for the Energy Sector’s Critical Infrastructure
Energy infrastructure is a key target for nation-state adversaries, and it potentially impacts national security, the economy, and daily life. RunSafe Security helps address these issues by providing robust protection for critical infrastructure, enhancing monitoring and incident response capabilities, mitigating risks within complex supply chains, and ensuring the reliability and safety of energy operations.
Enhanced Software Memory Protection to Prevent Memory-based Attacks
Energy infrastructure, such as power grids, oil refineries, and industrial control systems (ICS), relies heavily on operational technology like SCADA systems and human-machine interfaces (HMIs) to operate efficiently. Any disruption or compromise in these systems can lead to severe consequences, including power outages or environmental disasters.
RunSafe mitigates vulnerabilities in these critical systems, which often have lifespans of 10 to 30 years and are difficult to update. This long lifespan makes them especially vulnerable to evolving cyber risks. By protecting against memory-based attacks, RunSafe ensures these systems remain secure and resilient without requiring constant updates. This proactive defense helps prevent power outages or environmental disasters, safeguarding essential operations and public safety for decades to come.
“It is abundantly clear that America’s critical infrastructure is facing an unprecedented level of cyber threat. Foreign adversaries are bolder, better equipped, and increasingly willing to test the limits of our security measures in preparation for future attacks.”
Adopt a Zero-Trust Security Posture
Integrate security at the build stage and monitor runtime behavior to minimize cyber risk, reinforce the principles of zero-trust, and enhance overall security.
Mitigate Third-Party and Software Supply Chain Risks
Secure geographically dispersed assets and mitigate the vulnerabilities introduced by complex third-party supply chain relationships to reduce your expanding attack surface.
Establish Security and Resilience
Ensure the security and resilience of critical infrastructure by remaining compliant and protecting against disruptions that could impact national security and the economy.
Secure Critical Systems without Disruption
RunSafe’s innovative approach to securing energy systems involves seamlessly integrating our security solutions into existing infrastructure, including ICS, SCADA, and smart grid technologies. This form of security incorporated at build-time enhances system resilience against cyberattacks without necessitating code modifications or causing operational downtime. Our solutions are designed for smooth integration, ensuring energy operations remain uninterrupted and secure.
Identify, Protect, and Monitor Embedded Software Critical Infrastructure
RunSafe Security helps the energy sector identify risks, protect code, and monitor for crash events by incorporating advanced cybersecurity solutions directly into critical infrastructure systems like ICS, SCADA, and smart grids. This approach ensures that vulnerabilities are detected early, systems are shielded from potential exploits, and continuous monitoring is in place to respond quickly to emerging risks, safeguarding the reliability and safety of energy operations.
