Operational Cybersecurity • Critical Power
Battery Cyber protects the systems that keep power available — from BMS, EMS and PCS to SCADA, remote vendor access, and cloud control planes.
The Operational Challenge
Grid-scale energy storage and critical facility power have crossed an architectural threshold. High-density battery systems are now remotely monitored, software-dispatched, and continuously updated over the internet.
Unlike IT networks where compromise yields data exfiltration, in a battery environment a compromised setpoint alters high-voltage physical dynamics: State of Charge (SoC), thermal thresholds, and inverter switching frequencies.
Battery energy storage systems rely on a complex mesh of third parties: cell OEMs, inverter manufacturers, EMS software integrators, and capacity market aggregators — all holding persistent remote tunnels into the site.
Traditional cybersecurity tools rely on active port scanning or in-line blocking that can crash sensitive industrial controllers or trip circuit breakers. Battery Cyber uses strictly passive, non-disruptive OT observation.
Interactive Operational Model
Explore how trust relationships, remote maintenance portals, and control plane pathways connect external operators to physical high-voltage assets. Select an attack path to inspect reachable vulnerabilities and operational defense.
Platform Architecture
The operational cybersecurity layer built exclusively for high-consequence power environments. Four integrated capabilities engineered to preserve process continuity and asset safety.
Passive, continuous discovery across the entire OT stack — mapping BMS controllers, inverters, EMS logic, and vendor gateways without sending active probe packets into sensitive buses.
Filter out irrelevant enterprise IT vulnerability counts. Focus engineering teams on reachable exposures that carry genuine availability, thermal safety, or grid penalty risks.
Eliminate persistent VPN tunnels and shared technician logins. Enforce just-in-time, dual-authorized maintenance sessions with full audit attribution and automated expiry.
Contain compromised digital assets without arbitrarily disconnecting high-voltage storage or initiating cascading electrical trips on the grid.
