Critical infrastructure under watch
State actors already pre-position in energy networks to prepare for disruption. The servers that run the grid are a quiet target, and the power layer beneath them is the part few tools watch.
PowerGuard brings security to the power layer of energy and utility infrastructure, the control chips beneath every server in your control centers, substations and data centers, the layer most security tools cannot see. Running as software on the fleet you already have, it maps the power chips across every site, watches how they behave in real time, and gives each event a clear verdict: normal, suspicious or attack.
Request a pilotGrid operators, generators and utilities run critical infrastructure on fleets of servers spread across control centers, substations and remote sites, many of them unmanned. Every one of those servers relies on power control chips, managed through the BMC, that sit below the operating system and outside the view of most security tools. That makes the power layer a growing target for a sector that keeps the lights on and answers to strict regulation: state actors already pre-position in energy networks, attackers exploit server management chips, and idle compute is hijacked for hidden crypto mining. PowerGuard brings visibility and fast detection to this layer, running as software on the fleet you already have and sending clear verdicts into the SOC tools you already use.
State actors already pre-position in energy networks to prepare for disruption. The servers that run the grid are a quiet target, and the power layer beneath them is the part few tools watch.
Attackers already exploit server management chips, and researchers have shown that one command through them can bend a server's power to disrupt service or damage hardware.
Idle capacity across control centers and remote sites is a quiet target for crypto miners that hide from monitoring tools. The power they draw is harder to hide.
Finds the power chips on the servers you already run.
Watches them nonstop and gives every event a verdict.
Verdicts flow into Splunk or Datadog, and your own controls act on them.
Every verdict is recorded and summarized in regular reports your team can use as evidence for NERC CIP, NIS2 and internal audits across your estate.
PowerGuard deploys as software across the existing fleet, from one site to thousands, with no new chips and no board redesign.
Not a mockup. A live voltage attack pulled a rail from 5.21 V to 4.64 V and was detected in about 20 ms, streamed into Datadog and Splunk, the same tools your team already lives in.
