Challenge
Legacy Networking Is Costly & Risky
When the power goes out, the downstream effects can disrupt millions of business and residential customers that rely on it to conduct their daily affairs.
With physical infrastructure extending across a geographically-dispersed supply chain, it’s no wonder energy companies are making a stronger commitment to protect their networks from cyberattacks. The increased use of IoT devices throughout the supply chain now makes network security more important than ever.
From extraction to distribution, every connected device, field worker, and remote employee has now become a bigger target for cybercriminals looking to conduct an attack.
