Advanced security solutions for the unique challenges of oil & gas operations
Oil & Gas
The oil and gas sector operate in a high-stakes environment where operational continuity, safety, and energy supply are critical. Organizations manage sensitive exploration data, production control systems, and contractor-accessed networks across both on-prem and cloud infrastructures. The convergence of IT and operational technology (OT) systems, combined with regulatory demands and nation-state targeting, makes traditional tools insufficient for addressing complex and evolving cyber risks.
Cybral GUARD® for Oil & Gas
Oil & gas companies store and exchange vast volumes of seismic data, drilling reports, engineering designs, and contractor records across distributed environments. Shadow IT, multiple endpoints, and hybrid cloud usage make it challenging to track and protect sensitive information end-to-end.
Cybral GUARD™ brings AI-driven Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) tailored to this environment. It discovers the full data plane—across on-prem file servers, databases, user endpoints, and cloud platforms while uncovering hidden data in shadow IT. GUARD™ applies precise classification enriched with contextual metadata and continuously tracks usage such as access, edits, and transfers. This single source of truth strengthens downstream enforcement by DLP, DRM, and CASB tools, ensuring policies trigger with accuracy whether securing drilling data, controlling access to sensitive designs, or restricting contractor file flows.
Key Benefits
• End-to-end visibility into critical data flows. • Reduced risk of leaks or misuse across contractors and joint ventures. • Stronger compliance with energy sector regulations. • Trusted intelligence that enhances the performance of protection tools.
Cybral STORM® for Oil & Gas
Oil & gas infrastructure is a prime target for ransomware groups and nation-state adversaries aiming to disrupt production and supply chains. The sector’s reliance on distributed networks, industrial control systems, and third-party vendor connections makes it difficult for traditional vulnerability assessments to reveal how attackers could pivot through complex environments.
Cybral STORM™ delivers AI-powered Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) designed for oil & gas operations. Its XASM module maps the external attack surface, scanning exposed assets tied to global operations, while the Analyzer module models the internal environment through topology, vulnerability, and Active Directory scans. Together, they uncover exploitable attack paths, from an exposed vendor portal to a production control system, and prioritize risks based on operational impact. STORM™ enables proactive defense, ensuring resilience against threats that could halt production or compromise safety.
Strategic Advantages
• Unified visibility across IT, cloud, and operational environments. • Clear prioritization of exposures by operational criticality. • Proactive defense posture against ransomware and nation-state attacks. • Stronger resilience to protect production continuity and energy supply.
