Cybersecurity for the energy sector

We secure the most critical of all infrastructures.

Without energy, everything stops. This is precisely what makes the energy sector a high-value target for cyberattacks – and the most heavily regulated area of critical infrastructure. At INCYDE, we understand both the technical specifics of control systems and grid management as well as the complex regulatory landscape. Our interdisciplinary teams of domain and security experts help grid operators, energy suppliers and manufacturers view security not as an obstacle, but as an enabler.

The energy sector operates at the intersection of IT and OT – with protocols and systems that often remain in use for decades. At the same time, regulatory pressure is increasing: NIS 2, the KRITIS regulation, EnWG §11 and the BSI Act require demonstrable security measures. The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) extends these obligations to manufacturers of components and control systems.

Those who have already implemented ISO 27001, BDEW Whitepaper or IEC 62443 have a solid foundation. However, the new regulations bring additional requirements: reporting obligations within 24 hours, supply chain documentation and mandatory vulnerability management throughout the entire product lifecycle. We help you bridge the gap between your existing ISMS and the new obligations.
