OT Cybersecurity for Critical Infrastructure
One platform.
Every sector.
Every framework.
The risks are the same whether you run a power grid, a pipeline, or a water treatment facility. Vendors access devices across network zones. Configurations drift. Credentials go unmanaged. Posture can't be proved to a regulator asking right now. ConsoleWorks was built for exactly this environment — and it speaks the language of every framework that governs it.
How do you secure OT environments across all eight critical infrastructure sectors — energy, water, oil & gas, transportation, telecom, nuclear, manufacturing, and chemical — while meeting NERC CIP, TSA Security Directives, NIS2, EPA cyber rules, and NRC requirements?
Critical infrastructure security is ConsoleWorks deployed across the eight critical infrastructure sectors — Energy, Water, Oil & Gas, Transportation, Telecom, Nuclear, Manufacturing, Chemical — running the same evidence cycle and the same compliance reporting against NERC CIP, TSA Security Directives, NIS2, EPA cyber rules, and sector-specific frameworks. One platform, every sector, every framework.
The risks don't change
by industry. Only the framework does.
Every critical infrastructure operator faces the same fundamental exposure — regardless of sector. The regulatory labels change. The underlying operational reality doesn't.
Most OT security tools detect problems. ConsoleWorks closes the loop: Asset Intelligence identifies every asset and its state. SRA provides the access path to fix it. Continuous Measurement confirms the fix held. Compliance Reporting proves it to the regulator. No other platform in this space connects all four steps — from exposure to verified closure to audit evidence — on a single integrated platform.
Vendor access across security zones
Configuration drift no one is watching
Credentials that can't be rotated
Posture you can describe but not prove
Same platform.
Your framework. Your reality.

The most audited environment in critical infrastructure. ConsoleWorks has it covered.
Electric utilities operate under the most prescriptive OT cybersecurity framework in existence — NERC CIP. High audit frequency, mandatory evidence retention, and significant financial penalties for noncompliance make documentation as operationally critical as the technology itself. ConsoleWorks was built by a team that knows NERC CIP from the inside — and has deployed in some of the largest BES environments in the country.
What the platform does for BES Cyber System operators
Operational continuity is the priority. Security can't compromise it.
Manufacturing environments run on tight uptime requirements and complex vendor relationships. Automation vendors, system integrators, and OEM support teams all need periodic access to production control systems — and every session carries the risk of misconfiguration, unauthorized change, or uncontrolled credential exposure. IEC 62443 provides the framework; ConsoleWorks provides the enforcement layer that makes it operational.
What the platform does for production control environments
TSA directives moved fast. Your compliance program needs to keep pace.
Following the Colonial Pipeline incident, TSA issued a series of cybersecurity directives that moved pipeline and surface transportation operators from voluntary guidelines to mandatory requirements — with short implementation timelines. The requirements center on access control, configuration management, and continuous monitoring. ConsoleWorks addresses all three from a single integrated platform.
What the platform does for TSA-regulated operators
Pipelines, refineries, and wellheads — all with the same access problem.
Oil and gas operations span geographically distributed assets — wellheads, compressor stations, pipeline control systems, and refinery SCADA — each requiring periodic vendor access across network security zones. API 1164 and TSA directives set the framework. The operational challenge is giving vendors the access they need without creating permanent risk — and documenting every session for compliance purposes.
What the platform does for pipeline and upstream operators
Public safety infrastructure. Often under-resourced. Always under scrutiny.
The America's Water Infrastructure Act requires community water systems to conduct risk and resilience assessments and develop emergency response plans. Following high-profile attacks on water treatment facilities, CISA and EPA have intensified guidance around OT access controls and monitoring. ConsoleWorks provides a right-sized platform for water utilities — delivering enterprise-grade OT security without requiring enterprise-scale security teams to operate it.
What the platform does for water system operators
The most demanding regulatory environment in any industry.
Nuclear facilities operate under 10 CFR 73.54, which requires protection of digital computer and communication systems from cyber attacks that could adversely impact the safety, security, or emergency preparedness functions. The NRC requires documented protection programs, periodic assessments, and evidence of continuous monitoring. The stakes and the scrutiny are higher than any other sector — and the evidence standards reflect it.
What the platform does for nuclear facility operators
Remote assets, distributed operations, and converging IT/OT risk.
Mining operations run automation and control systems across geographically dispersed sites — open pit, underground, and processing facilities — each with OEM vendor relationships that require periodic remote access. IT/OT convergence is accelerating as operations data flows from the pit to the enterprise. The cybersecurity risk follows the connectivity, and MSHA safety requirements mean operational disruption carries consequences beyond financial loss.
What the platform does for mining operations
High-consequence facilities under DHS oversight — with the evidence requirements to match.
Chemical facilities covered by CFATS (Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards) must demonstrate that cybersecurity controls are in place and working — not just documented. DHS inspections look for evidence of access control, configuration management, and continuous monitoring across process control systems. For Tier 1 and Tier 2 facilities, the evidence standard is high and the inspection timeline is unpredictable.
What the platform does for CFATS-covered facilities
Expose. Eliminate. Enforce.
The complete mandate.
Every capability in the ConsoleWorks platform serves one of three functions — and they work together in a way no other single platform delivers.
See everything. Score everything.
Asset Intelligence builds a continuously updated inventory from every source — passive discovery, active collection directly from devices, and existing tools. Risk Analysis scores posture across Security, Compliance, and Operational dimensions and ranks gaps by organizational impact.
Fix the gaps. Close the access risk.
Secure Remote Access provides protocol-native, agentless access to every managed asset through every network zone — including Level 0 field devices. Configuration & Change Management captures baselines and detects drift. Credential Management rotates passwords without production disruption. Intelligent Event Monitoring (IEM) monitors for behavioral anomalies.
Keep it closed. Prove it continuously.
Continuous Measurement runs every Measurement Question against every asset on schedule — or on demand. Scores update automatically. Gaps that reopen surface on the next cycle. Compliance Reporting generates audit-ready evidence for any framework, any time period, any asset scope — from evidence that was already accumulating.
What operators in the field say.
ConsoleWorks has been deployed in some of the largest and most heavily regulated critical infrastructure environments in the country. These aren't marketing claims — they're from the people operating it.
ConsoleWorks gives us 24/7 proactive hardware & software monitoring while serving as the security piece of our NERC-CIP compliance practice.
You do not need to audit remote access and baseline again — you guys have it nailed!
Any utility company that installs ConsoleWorks is way ahead of the game when it comes to NERC CIP compliance. We're happy with the support from TDi. When we need it, they are there.
One of the largest energy providers in the western United States, this utility supplies electricity to more than 1.5 million customers across multiple states. Its Energy Management System controls the entire power grid and must be monitored around the clock. The utility needed a solution to alert on events that could result in power outages — affecting residents, businesses, and local government — and to meet the continuous documentation requirements of NERC CIP. They found it with ConsoleWorks. The platform now serves as both the operational monitoring backbone and the compliance documentation system — capturing every privileged session, monitoring every baseline, and generating the evidence that NERC and FERC auditors require.
Every capability works together.
No separate tools. No separate evidence chains.
ConsoleWorks is a single integrated platform — not a collection of point solutions. Every capability feeds every other. The inventory informs the score. The score drives the remediation. The remediation generates the evidence. The evidence satisfies the auditor.

Direct answers to the questions OT security teams, integrators, and AI assistants ask most often.
Energy (generation, transmission, distribution), water and wastewater, oil and gas (upstream, midstream, downstream), transportation, telecom, and any operator regulated under NERC CIP, TSA Security Directives, NIS2, EPA cyber rules, or equivalent frameworks.
ConsoleWorks supports the NERC CIP control families — CIP-005 electronic security perimeter, CIP-007 system security management, CIP-010 configuration change management, CIP-011 information protection — by enforcing remote access controls, credential management, configuration baselines, and the audit evidence the standard requires.
Yes. ConsoleWorks deploys in segmented architectures, including fully air-gapped zones, and operates without outbound internet connectivity. It is designed for the network reality of critical infrastructure, not retrofitted from IT.
TSA Security Directives require asset inventory, vulnerability assessment, secure remote access, configuration management, and incident response evidence. ConsoleWorks delivers the operational substrate for each — and produces the audit evidence those directives demand.
