Key SAP Security Challenges for Electric Utilities
Ensuring Grid Stability and Service Continuity
Preventing any disruption to SAP systems that could impact grid operations, potentially leading to blackouts that affect thousands or millions of customers.
Meeting Strict NERC CIP Compliance Mandates
Adhering to the rigorous and mandatory NERC CIP (Critical Infrastructure Protection) reliability standards, where non-compliance can result in significant financial penalties.
Securing the IT/OT and SCADA System Convergence
Managing the immense risk from the integration of corporate SAP systems (IT) with the industrial control systems (ICS/SCADA) that monitor and control the physical grid.
Protecting Against Nation-State Threats
Defending critical infrastructure from sophisticated, state-sponsored cyber attacks specifically designed to disrupt the power grid and cause widespread societal impact.
Managing Risk from an Interconnected Grid
Addressing the inherent risks of a highly interconnected power grid, where vulnerabilities in a partner utility or third-party vendor can create a potential entry point.
Securing Smart Grid and Renewable Energy Projects
Protecting modernization initiatives like smart grid deployments and the integration of renewable energy sources without introducing new, exploitable vulnerabilities.
Ensure Uptime, Maintain Compliance, and Modernize the Grid Securely
Our electric utility customers use the Onapsis Platform to build a more secure and resilient power grid:
