When the Lights Depend on It, Awareness Can't Be Optional
Built for energy, utilities, oil & gas, and Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) operators where a phishing click can become a physical-world consequence.
CORE OBJECTIVE
Protecting the bridge between enterprise networks and physical grid operations.
ProtectYourGrid addresses the convergence of IT and Operational Technology (OT) risk, training control-room engineers, field personnel, and corporate staff to recognize the phishing and remote-access misuse that precedes not just a data breach, but a physical-safety incident.
Corporate IT Phishing
Attacks target enterprise email credentials used by administrative or engineering personnel.
Operational Gateway Access
Compromised logins cross into SCADA, HMI interfaces, and field substation equipment.
CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE THREATS
Vector-specific simulations for energy and utility operations.
Engineered specifically to address the intersection of administrative systems and physical industrial control equipment.
Engineering workstation compromise
Targeted phishing simulations aimed at personnel with dual access to enterprise email and industrial control management systems.
Vendor and contractor remote access misuse
Scenarios examining unauthorized credential sharing, unverified third-party maintenance tunnels, and bypassed gateway controls.
HMI and SCADA credential harvesting
Training staff to identify credential harvesting campaigns designed to target human-machine interfaces and operational dashboards.
Emergency response social engineering
Testing operational discipline under simulated crisis conditions where urgent commands bypass verification protocols.
REGULATORY COVERAGE
Compliance mapped to critical sector mandates.
Energy operators and critical infrastructure providers must satisfy stringent national oversight bodies and international security standards without operational disruption.
NDPA 2023 (enforced by the NDPC)
Securing personnel data, telemetry logs, and commercial records handled across operational and administrative networks.
ISO/IEC 27001 (Annex A 6.3 in 2022; A.7.2.2 in 2013)
Providing audit-ready completion metrics and awareness verification for all operational and technical staff.
ROLE-BASED DEPLOYMENT
Targeted pathways across the operational hierarchy.
Different teams present different exposure points. Training content is structured specifically for corporate administrators, control-room operators, and field-based engineering crews.
Control-room operators
HMI security and verification discipline under high-pressure conditions.
Field and substation engineers
Mobile-optimized threat recognition designed for frontline personnel.
Corporate and administrative staff
Enterprise email hygiene and citizen data protection protocols.
PROGRAM EXECUTION
Structured progression for critical operations.
A dependable, repeatable methodology designed to measure baseline human risk and build verified defensive habits across complex industrial environments.
Assess
Identify how access, remote connections, and staff behavior link corporate systems to operations.
Train
Deliver role-based content for control-room staff, field teams, and corporate users.
Report
Provide documented results that show progress over time for internal oversight and regulatory audits.
Frequently asked questions
Do you train field staff without regular computer access?
Yes, mobile-optimized delivery is built for frontline and field-based personnel.
How does training address OT environments without risking equipment?
All simulations and testing occur exclusively on administrative and training interfaces, never interacting with live control systems or active industrial machinery.
ProtectYourGrid integrates directly with the ProtectYourData awareness platform.
