Secure your energy infrastructure with resilient digital trust

From smart grids to SCADA systems, every operational technology in the energy sector depends on certificates. Evertrust helps energy companies discover, govern, and automate their entire certificate estate — ensuring resilience, compliance, and operational continuity.

The challenge

Energy operators face critical challenges in managing machine identities across converging IT and OT environments.

01

Converging IT and OT environments

Energy companies must manage certificates across both corporate IT and industrial OT networks — often with incompatible tools and disconnected visibility.

02

Critical infrastructure under threat

Energy grids are prime targets for cyberattacks. A single expired or compromised certificate can disrupt power distribution to millions of customers.

03

Regulatory pressure escalating

NIS2, IEC 62351, CER, and national cybersecurity frameworks all mandate certificate-based security. Non-compliance risks fines and operational shutdowns.
