Security to fuel a transforming industry

Changes in consumer preferences, evolving threat landscapes, and regulations have changed the energy and utilities industry. What once was an analogue, scale-driven, centralized model, has become a digital and distributed energy model. To keep up with this evolving industry, you need to adapt your security strategy by heightening your critical infrastructure security, fostering a safer work environment, and keeping ahead of regulatory changes.
Security challenges in the energy and utilities industry

Standardize your operations
The rise in demand for renewable energy combined with the convergence between oil, gas, and power utilities is driving mergers and acquisitions (M&A). As these companies converge, so do their security departments. So, how do you ensure a standardized, centralized security strategy? You need a security solution that allows you to manage all your security operations in one place.

Ensure compliance
The industry is becoming increasingly regulated as new legislations are being created to protect our critical infrastructure. As regulations enter the new digital era, your security team needs to modernize and rationalize your regulatory, legal, and compliance functions and practices. You need a security solution that helps you meet compliance regulations as they evolve.

Evolving threats
Hacker groups are much more organized and sophisticated often resulting in cyberattacks with the help of trusted employees and contractors, whether intentional or unintentional. So, protecting your critical infrastructure from these threats is crucial. You need a system that can converge your physical and cybersecurity plans to protect sensitive information and reduce your exposure to threats.

Features
Intrusion and Restricted Security Area
Be aware of intruders before they reach your fence line while reducing the likelihood of false alarms. Leverage a combination of laser and radar detection technology to detect, deter, and respond to intruders and drones. Learn more about Security Center Restricted Area Surveillance.
Intelligent key management
Digitize your key locking system to eliminate the need for any hard wiring or a power supply in hard to reach areas such as safes, cabinets, remote gates, and fences. Benefit from the audit accountability and access management available with IP-access control but without the costs associated with an online access point. Overcome your current rekeying issues by maintaining security even if someone loses a key.
Muster and accountability reports
Track the movement of people over geographical maps or through visual reports and be notified of their location based on built-in people counting with access control events. Turn a mobile device into a muster reader at the muster zone during an emergency evacuation to get an accurate read of who is accounted for and in the safe zone. Send reports to key personnel in the organization and with first responders.
