Cyber Security Insurance for Energy

CYBER SECURITY INSURANCE FOR ENERGY

Discover our tailored cyber insurance solutions for the energy sector and protect your business from cyber threats.

The energy sector faces an increasingly hostile cyber landscape. With rising cyber risks and threats targeting critical infrastructure, legacy systems and growing digital connectivity expose energy companies to significant vulnerabilities.

Cyber attacks, such as ransomware and nation-state-sponsored threats, aim to disrupt operations and compromise essential services. Supply chain vulnerabilities further increase the risk, as third-party providers can inadvertently introduce security gaps.

Insider threats, whether deliberate or accidental, also pose a serious challenge to businesses. Safeguarding energy infrastructure is crucial to maintain reliable services and national security.

Effective cyber security measures are key if you want to support your business operations and keep them running optimally. At Canopius, we provide proactive services, including threat intelligence reports, security assessments, and specialised training webinars.

Top Five Cyber Security Challenges in the Energy Sector

The top five cyber security challenges in the energy sector are:

  1. Ransomware Attacks

    Cyber criminals target critical infrastructure to disrupt energy supply and demanding large sums to restore operations.

     

  2. Legacy Systems

    Many energy companies rely on outdated systems. This makes them more vulnerable to cyber attacks due as they have weak security features.

     

  3. Supply Chain Vulnerabilities

    Third-party vendors in the energy sector may introduce security gaps. These gaps may increase the risk of unauthorised access to systems.

     

  4. Insider Threats

    Employees with access to critical infrastructure can unintentionally or deliberately cause security breaches, compromising the entire network.

     

  5. Nation-State Cyber Threats

    State-sponsored attackers target energy systems in order to disrupt services or cause economic and political instability.
