At this year’s KEY – The Energy Transition Expo in Rimini, one trend was clear across discussions with utilities, technology providers, and industry leaders: cybersecurity is becoming a critical pillar of the energy transition.
As part of ENEVO Group, the SentryOT team was present at the event, engaging with energy sector stakeholders on how operational technology (OT) cybersecurity must evolve alongside the rapid digitalization of energy infrastructure.
Rising Demand for OT Cybersecurity
Across the event, many energy operators highlighted similar challenges. With NIS2 compliance approaching, organizations are under increasing pressure to strengthen their cybersecurity posture while continuing to modernize their systems.
At the same time, a common barrier remains: limited cybersecurity personnel and scarce OT security expertise. Unlike traditional IT environments, securing operational technology requires deep understanding of industrial protocols, field equipment, and grid operations.
How SentryOT Helps Close the Gap
During the event, SentryOT showcased how organizations can address these challenges by combining advanced OT cybersecurity technology with specialized security services.
Through capabilities such as vCISO services, SOC-as-a-Service, and Incident Response & Coordination, SentryOT helps organizations accelerate their NIS2 readiness, improve visibility across operational environments, and strengthen overall cyber resilience.
