Cybersecurity for Oil & Gas Infrastructure

Oil and gas organizations operate in high-pressure environments financially, physically, and digitally. Whether extracting, processing, or transporting energy resources, the industry relies on deeply interconnected control systems that must run continuously, safely, and securely.

Novaigu delivers proactive cybersecurity solutions tailored to the operational demands of the oil and gas sector. We build cyber resilience into the foundation of your infrastructure, prioritizing secure architecture, high availability, and long-term operational continuity.

Key Cybersecurity Challenges in Oil & Gas

1

Legacy Control Systems with Limited Security

Industrial assets often depend on aging DCS, PLC, and SCADA platforms not designed with today’s threat landscape in mind.

2

Complex Network Integration

The convergence of OT with corporate IT environments expands attack surfaces, increasing the risk of lateral movement and unauthorized access.

3

Distributed and Harsh Operating Environments

From remote field sites to high-risk processing zones, systems must be hardened, autonomous, and capable of operating in extreme conditions.

4

Strict Regulatory and Operational Demands

Compliance with global standards such as IEC 62443, NIST CSF, and NERC CIP is essential not only for safety and reliability but also for business continuity and legal compliance.

Case Study - Team Backlog

— Trigger

  • Organization is in a firefighting mode.
  • Spending money is creating additional requirements, and open new attack vectors.

— Challenge

  • 23 facilities globally.
  • Inconsistency in results between regions.
  • Different solutions deployed on each site to mitigate the same threats.
  • New management has no visibility or historical data to rely on in decision making.

Novaigu Platform

  • Identify the organization risk profile.
  • Discover and assess assets to establish a cybersecurity baseline.
  • Implement a cyber security maturity roadmap.
  • Implement mitigations based on criticality to improve resilience.
  • Reassess on regular basis to measure maturity and budgeting requirement.

Case Study - Regulatory Compliance

— Trigger

  • Change in Regulatory and Compliance requirements.
  • Implement a cyber security program and assess their maturity on annual bases.
  • Three facilities in the US and Canada.

— Challenge

  • Large quantity of assets (170 network devices, 340 systems, 1000s of network connected field devices per site).
  • Reliance on the IT team to manage their assets.
  • Five specialized resources and six months to complete the task.

Novaigu Platform

  • Identify ICS/OT assets and define ownership, responsibility and accountability, and segregate OT and IT assets.
  • Reduce efforts, logistics and time required to one week per site.
  • Execute a vulnerability Assessment to evaluate weaknesses in security controls (per frameworks and standards) and provide a detailed and prioritized roadmap for the cybersecurity program.
  • No disruption to operators during the activities.
  • Reduce average cost from 340K to 120K a year.

Case Study - Expansions & Upgrades

— Trigger

  • Additional production units.
  • System upgrades and migrations.

— Challenge

  • Lack of staff and skills.
  • New systems interface with the existing environment.
  • Added complexity to inventory and managed assets.
  • Site has no visibility, and the new systems are adding risks.

Novaigu Platform

  • Immediately discover the new connected assets.
  • Scan security configurations on each asset and harden it.
  • Classify and organize assets based on use, functionality and criticality.
  • Execute a vulnerability Assessment to evaluate weaknesses in security controls, user access, patch, AV … etc.
  • Report on gaps and prioritize remediations based on compliances, security lifecycles and maturity levels.
  • The remediations (hardware, software, labor) can upon negotiations contracted to Novaigu professional services for implementation.
