Cybersecurity: A Critical Imperative for Modern Organizations

Best in class cybersecurity services to protect and ensure compliance with legal obligations

In today's landscape, cybersecurity has become a paramount concern for organizations. The media frequently highlights cyber-attacks and production halts lasting days or even weeks due to compromised IT/OT systems. This issue is particularly pressing given the current (geo)political climate, where cyber-attacks on critical infrastructure are a real threat.

Beyond the immediate commercial impact of IT disruptions and subsequent downtimes, legislative pressures are also intensifying. The upcoming Network and Information Security Directive (NIS2) aims to bolster cybersecurity infrastructure across the European Union, introducing stringent new requirements for asset owners. Compliance with these directives is crucial to avoid substantial penalties.

From an economic perspective, investing in robust cybersecurity measures is not only a legal obligation but also a strategic advantage. A well-developed cybersecurity framework can protect against attacks, ensuring the continuous operation of wind farms and PV power plants.

In such a volatile environment, having a reliable partner is essential. With ISO27001 certified energy consult as your partner, you can navigate the complexities of cybersecurity across its entire lifecycle. Protect your organization, ensure compliance, and maintain operational continuity with our comprehensive cybersecurity services.

Our cybersecurity services for your energy life cycle

Energy Consult provides all the essential services to ensure you remain technically up-to-date in terms of cybersecurity and can confidently meet your legal obligations. An organization's journey into the cybersecurity space can be divided into three main phases:

Phase 1: Preparing your organization for cybersecurity

The first phase starts with a "Management Awareness Session." For any management system, it is crucial that the management understands their responsibilities regarding cybersecurity. This session clarifies the role of company management and the requirements for implementation.

During the subsequent "Cyber Security X-Ray" phase, we work with you to assess the current status of your organization. Based on the findings, we outline the next steps and develop an initial implementation plan.

Phase 2: Implementation and Certification

This phase focuses on the implementation of cybersecurity measures within your organization. Energy consult supports you with systematic and risk-based security management. We help create and implement the required processes, provide technical consulting on state-of-the-art design, train your employees, and offer go-live support.

Another critical aspect of this phase is audits and certifications. Energy consult conducts internal audits and supports you (including on-site assistance) in preparing for and performing external audits. We also help manage the aftermath of external audits and provide ongoing "keep alive" support.

Phase Operational: Lifetime

Once cybersecurity measures are in place, energy consult assists with ongoing operations by offering services for your operational technology (OT) network. Additionally, we monitor new regulations and requirements relevant to your organization and engage with authorities to ensure you remain compliant and up-to-date.
